Jude Kraft Obituary

Kraft Jude Samuel Kraft, age 6, of Worthington passed away tragically on May 26, 2017. Jude was born on May 12, 2011 to parents Benjamin and Allison Kraft. He had just completed Kindergarten at Bluffsview Elementary School. Jude was a bright, vibrant 6 year old boy that loved soccer, basketball, his sister, and his friends. He loved life and made an impact on everyone that crossed his path. His optimism, kindness, and positivity will never be forgotten and will leave a lasting impact on all of us. He is survived by his parents, Ben and Allison; sister, Alivia; grandparents, Sam and Margo Kraft, Mark Patzer, Lisa and Steve Ball; aunts, uncles, cousins, great-grandparents, and many close family friends. In lieu of a funeral, the family will have a private service at the Kraft family farm in New Washington, OH in which a 6 year old oak tree has been planted in his honor. The family has established the Jude Kraft Memorial Fund in order to give back to the caring Central Ohio community in his name. If you wish to help keep Jude's memory alive please consider contributing to the Jude Kraft Memorial Fund by mail at 6077 Frantz Rd., Suite 103, Dublin, OH 43017 or on Go Fund Me "Jude Kraft Memorial Fund". Services are entrusted to SCHOEDINGER WORTHINGTON CHAPEL. Please visit our online guestbook at www.schoedinger.com
