I'm so sorry about this loss. He was a great man and full
Of live, love and energy. I have memories of watch him and Kate run Fairmount laughing, chatting and encouraging each other. You are in my thoughts and heart in Connecticut.
Good memories and peace,

The smile says it all. It is full of Craig's joyfulness. His membory will always bring a smile to those who loved him and those who merely knew him as a collegue.

I remember Craig throughout our years together at Ainsworth grade school and Lincoln High as a good friend and fellow competitor in basketball and boy scouts. Many good times were spent growing up together at his home on Vista Ave and later at the Multnomah Club. He will be sorely missed.

When someone you love becomes a memory, the memory becomes a treasure. May the wonderful treasures fill your hearts with love and bring you peace. Our thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time. Hosea 13:14 *
