Met Craig around 1965 and stayed friends till the end. We had a lot of fun times in our wild youth in Darien. We both shared one health problem in the last decade, so we talked about that once in a while. I knew he was struggling and am so sorry to hear he passed. Much love my friend.

Craig was a good man
After knowing him for over fifty years,his loss is deeply felt.He wouldn't want us to do much more than toast him and remember the insanity he brought us .Trips up north to fish or hunt won't be as gut wrenchingly funny ,he is missed ,love you my friend,see you when I get there
