I was a good friend of Craig's in high school, and we kept in touch for a couple of years after when he was a uni in W. Mass and I was at NYU. Still feel close to him after all these years....

Craig and I were friends in high school, and for a couple of years after when he was at undergrad in Massachusetts and I was at NYU. We lost contact long ago, but I have fond memories of the time when we were friends. Sorry he's left us. Condolences to his family.
