I worked with Craig at Sobeys for 5+ years... We used to sit at the same lunch table on occasion... Craig was smart, sassy... We would have brief convos about Canadian Politics... As an 'older' guy there, I enjoyed Craig's influence and experience, he was VERY good at his job! I was so shocked and sad at this news... We lost a solid person, much respect to Craig and to his family I wish peace.
