So glad to have met Creston. He raised a lovely daughter

Creston I will never forget the times we spent together in the world of audio, I learnt so much about life from you my friend . R.I.P Paul Stephenson former CEO NAIM AUDIO UK

Creston Funk was one of a kind, brilliant and funny always curious and passionate about all things good in life. He was a man who had a great impact on me in my teenage years. Cynthia and Creston, I am so deeply sorry for your loss. Your dad was simply the coolest ever and I will keep him in my memories. My heart goes out to you and your families and hope that your grief can be lightened by the tremendous love your dad had for you both, that is forever.

I know Creston Through Cynthia Funk Joseph and her brother Creston. Like them, he was a cool cat. It’s easy to see why they are so current and fashionable in every way . Mister will be missed by many here in Texas and LA I am sure. He was the definition of a cool dad and a super nice man. He always had the best music playing wherever he was and he was so young at heat. Although he moved from Texas many years ago. I will miss him. RiP Friend.

I met Creston when I was 19 years old and was only around him from a brief moment of time - but he had a profound impact on me. He just oozed cool and was so cultured.

What a guy!
I met Creston at our rowing dock, Texas Rowing.
We began drinking a lot of coffee At WholeFoods, and talking among our group about everything. Since we were at WhoFo anyway it was often about food. That’s where I heard my favorite Creston Funk quote “When you think about it, isn’t it ALL Sea Salt?”
I believe it is, as we all shall be.

He was a very good man. Interesting in so many ways. we will miss his wit and knowledge.
