Dear Carol, I'm so sorry to hear of your loss--Reverend George Craik, Retired--that's how he always introduced himself to the YAC candidates--He was one of my dearest friends and I will miss him--He was younger at heart than any of the rest of us and I will miss his wit and woderful love for all. His name was the first one in my address book!!! (there it shall remain, as a great reminder of a great man) You are in my thoughts and prayers--

Dear John and family, Our sincerest sympathy in the loss of your Dad. God's Love and Peace, Elaine and Ron Day, Cayuga.

Hi John and Daniel,
I was sorry to learn about the passing of your father. Every now and then I would run into him at a store, etc. and would ask him about each of you and your families. I shall be praying for you. In Christ's Love, Sandy Luther (Miss Sandy - your former religious education teacher in Cayuga)

We here at Mercy Adult Day Program will miss Reverend Craik very much. He always had a smile and a greeting for everyone. God truly called one of his own home.

Dear Craik Family,
Our deepest sympathy to all of you. We feel like we have also lost a family member. Rev. Craik performed many marriages/funerals in our family. He was a great person and an important part of our lives. We will miss him. Prayers are with you all.

To the Rev. George Craik family -- Dear Carol, I was shocked to hear of Rev. Craik's death. He was our spiritual guidance for 14 years, I beleive and I was organist at that time. I thoroughly enjoyed his Scottish accent, sharing many weddings and funerals. He called me frequently to play at the vesper services at Mercy Rehab. He had been in contact with many, many people and will be sorely missed. God be with with you. Cayuga friend - Arlene Hurlbutt

Dear Craik Families,
Please accept my heartfelt sympathy on the passing of the Rev. George. My thoughts and prayers are with you in this very difficult time. It has been many years since I last spoke with George, but I still recall his wonderful wit and understated wisdom. John and Daniel, it is very saddening that as my Dad enters Mercy Rehab yours has to leave. George surely is being called home. You still hold him in your hearts. May your memmories bring you comfort.
God...

Dearest Carol & Family:
We cannot begin to express our grief and sadness over the loss of Cousin George. When we met him a few years back, it was as though we had known him all our lives. We will so miss the quick wit, the sparkling eyes, his smile, his sense of humor. We'll always cherish the "armchair tour" of Scotland he gave us when you stayed with us. He was truly Laird Craik and we will always remember him with love. Our prayers are with all of you at this sad time. We love you all....

To Rev. Craik's Family,

Rev. Craik was a wonderful man and an awesome speaker. We just recently had Rev. Craik for our Father's funeral. We know what you are going through and our prayers and Thoughts are with you at this time.
