Dear Mr. & Mrs. Marshall, Scott, Lori, Myles & Aaron

My Dad just called and told me of Craig's passing. He saw the notice in the Hamburg Sun, that he has forwarded to him in Florida. I am deeply saddeded by this news and want to express my condolenses to the both of you, Scott, Lori, Myles and Aaron.

Growing up, Craig and I were best friends and inseparable. I truly cherish the great times we had and the way you and Mrs. Marshall made me feel like one of your family. Craig and I experienced may things together including man's first steps on the moon at a sleepover in my basement. He was a very creative and talented person and will surely be missed by all of us who knew him.

To Myles & Aaaron: Although I have not had the privledge to meet you, having known you father, I am confident that he has provided you with a strong moral foundation for you to have grown into loving and caring fathers of your own. I am so sorry for your loss and will keep you and the entire Marshall family in my prayers.

Dear Bob, Arlene, Scott & Lori, I am so sorry to hear of Craig's passing. It was wonderful growing up next door to your family with the brothers. I'll always remember the baseball games. The worst thing a parent could have to do is bury a child, no matter how old they are. It helps to remember and talk about all the special things you did together. My family and I talk about Jacob and Dad all the time, we laugh (albeit w/ tears sometimes) about the silly crazy things they would do and it helps us through. My heart is with you all.
Love Amy

Mr. & Mrs. Marshall, Lori & Scott,

My deepest sympathy goes out to all of you, and my thoughts & prayers are with you. Craig was one of my earliest and best childhood friends. Having never had a brother it was great to have a wonderful boy "friend" to hang with. I have a huge wealth of priceless memories to reflect on and I will cherish those memories. I thank you for sharing him.
