Wow it seems like yesterday when I first met Craig when he was 6 years old I'm best friends with his older brother Zach and he was just a little mischievous baby boy my heart is so sad to hear the news and it breaks my heart for the family to see my little brother this way my condolences go out to Zack and his family Mrs. Lewis my heart goes out to you although Craig is no longer in pain I'm sure the pain in your heart will lessen as the days go on knowing that he is in God's hands so rest in peace little Craig there's no doubt in my mind that your father Mr Lewis is also looking after you up in heaven so rest in peace from the AL.Tomlinson family AKA Tommy Tomlinson
