Craig Jacobs

I had the sincere pleasure of calling Craig a colleague and the great honor to know him as a friend.
Craig was never too busy to help another; whether it be professional or personal matters. He had the ability to lift others to see their own potential; he challenged them and supported them as they developed into their own being. Craig was one of lead 'firefighters' that would dash into the chaos of our business, tame the inferno, and want nothing more than to pass on his knowledge and...

Craig always makes me smile; even now. I would like to share my top 3 favorite Craigisms. That is to say, when I hear him in my head (which is often) these three lines seem to occur a great deal more than the rest:

3. "Be careful, m' boy!"
2. "Are you insane!?!?"

and the number one most repeated Craig Jacobs utterance of all time is...

1. "It's godda be da powuh!"

I hope you got to see the dolphins again, Craig. I miss you.

Smitty

Craig was a wonderful man that lifted my heart and always made me smile. He gave me confidence and encouragement, and always found a way to make me feel good about my life. His voice itself makes me smile just thinking about it. Perhaps now he knows 'why he past on Terrel for Barry!'

I miss you, Craig!

'The Commish'

I had the joy of working with Craig and continuing our friendship during football season every year. Craig was a wonderful man, loved by all who knew him, and he used his gift of humour to the benefit of anyone in earshot. Craig will live on fondly in our memories of his stories and one-liners.

Craig was a joy to know and to work with. He kept us laughing, occasionaly at his own "expense". You will be missed.

Craig was a man with a tremendous spirit that was obvious when you were in his presence. When he interviewed me at Ibertech in 1997, I knew we would be lifelong friends, and we were. I will miss him and the ever-present twinkle in his eyes. He changed my life, he believed in me.

Craig was a dear friend and will be missed tremendously.
