04/25/1954 - 01/01/2023
We are sad to announce the passing of Craig Foster. Craig died at age 68 on January 1, 2023 after a hard fought battle with multiple health issues. He passed away surrounded by his loved ones and is survived by his wife, Claudia Foster; mother, Rosemary Foster; son, Geoff Foster and stepson, James O'Hare.
Craig Foster founded FirsTax since 1983. His objective was to turn every new client of the firm into a "raving fan". Throughout the years, his clients also became very dear friends for Life! He was a mentor and he will truly be missed by everyone.

Craig helped our Lady Lambs buyers club with HLSR. I had the honor to work with him as a client also. He was a very giving man. My heart and prayers go to his lovely wife and family. They came to auction in 2022. Glad he had the chance to see what he help make possible.

I knew Craig Foster from work - he had an office at the center I was running at the time. He was always very kind to me, and was very patient as I learned the ropes of my new role. He would always make time to speak with me before he started his day or before he would leave in the evening. I also remember making him coffee/tea in the mornings, this was his favorite lol. I'm very sorry to hear this news. You will be missed, Craig.

So sad this happened. I was just recently trying to find Craig. I played in a band with him in 1969. Did he still have that Gibson SG he had back then? I alway think of Craig when I hear Pride of Man by Quicksilver Messenger Service.

Yes Mr. Foster turned into a dear friend of mine. I had been using FirsTax since 2020. I´m missing his smile, hugs & "jokes." I´m grateful he was in my life and I got to be a friend of his. My condolences to his family. Many blessings - Cindi
