What a great guy. To the Zucker family, I am so sorry for your loss. Craig used to crack me up in grade school by insisting his mother pack him "a pickle" every single day with his lunch. In our teens, he was a blast to play poker with, even though he usually won and took my money. Fantastic person. Great sense of humor. My deepest sympathy.

Huge SMILE. That is what I think about when I think of Craig. I knew him in high school and his wonderful smile was contagious and made everyone feel good. He had such a kind heart and I will miss him.
