You are missed and remembered buddy.

Another year gone my friend. Think about you all the time. Miss you my brother hope you're rocking the heavens.

Missing you and thinking about you on this day my friend. I can't believe it's been 12 years without you. Always in my thoughts Craig.

To the Ortega Family: I am so sorry for your loss. I just found this today as I was going thru some old Elk Grove pictures and remembered Craig. Nobody could forget Craig. :) I met Craig back in 1990 and knew him till 1994 when I moved to Colorado and we lost touch.
We went camping together and played keyboards. I remember him as always funny and wanting to play music. Its been a long time but i have not forgot Craig. Rest in Peace buddy.

My husband and I just wanted to say we are very sorry for the loss of your son, brother, uncle Craig. It's been just over 5 years now but we've just learned of this today. My husband Jason and I met Craig in 2000. My husband met Craig when he worked for a company based in Citrus Heights. He was with Kristen then. He lived in Orangevale with her and her kids and he was in the band Kattywompus. Honestly, I wasn't sure of him at first but my husband assured me he was a good person. As I, too got...

JOhn So sorry for your loss.. :( I hope all is well with you and your family. I think of you often. Sending my Love to you, Tricia DeHerrera

Craig- I keep thinking about how loving you were with Trevor, your nephew. You two had a wonderful bond and he talks about you all the time. Your wallet had a receipt of all the stuff you bought Trev the last time you spent the day with him. Also, you had several photos of Trev and myself too. I was touched to see that and you totally spoiled him and he loved it!!! We still love and miss you!!!
