Craig, I wish we had gotten to know each other this close many years ago, we haven't finished our work together. I will come again one day to pick your brain. It is so unfortunate you were the only person that really got me and understood me. I dont think I can finish our work alone with your mini me(Shawn). I truly hope one day someone will be there to take such good care of me as he did with you. A bond I have never seen between two human beings, so strong. Always remember you and I both...

I, like many others, worked with Craig for many years at Davidson and got to know and appreciate him for his wit, compassion, and his caring ways. We had many interesting conversations over the years, and although we may not have always agreed, Craig was a great listener and always respected anothers opinion. The last time we talked he was so excited about a project he was taking on, reminding me of his determination and committment that he applied to any project he worked on throughout the...

Craig was one of my favorite people at Davidson Textron. Our group of Ed, Henry, Craig and I worked well as a team. No one loved the Dover plant and automotive business like Craig. Even though I have not seen him in over 10 years it feels like yesterday.He was always a pleasure to work with and his integrity, honesty, and attention to detail is his legacy. Paul and I want to express our condolences and sadness at Craig's passing.

Craig, Mike Gibbas and I were like the three Musketeers for many, many years and after all our divorces, job changes, relocations etc. we grew apart and finally stopped seeing and visiting each other. He called me out of the blue several months ago, after years of silence, and we talked a long while and we were planning to get together again for a fishing trip this spring.
He talked about going into a new business venture. He never mentioned any illness. I was shocked today when Mike...
