I didn't know your son Craig or your family. I too am a guitar player and often sit at Andrew Hayden to play acoustic. I've sat at Craig's memorial bench many times to play a few tunes for him. 18 is young, may his music and the melody of his song linger on. -Topper

It's probably been a long time since the last time I saw Craig, but he and his brother Jeff, were good friends of mine from skiing at Camp Fortune, I heard about this unfortunacy, thought I'd give my respects. Best wishes to all in the family and my best hopes for Craig I hope he's doin well in a better place.

Marian & Mike,
I just learned of the passing of Craig this evening. I can't begin to express how sad I feel receiving this news. I recall Craig back in NGSL, many years ago. Such a wonderful young boy and adult. I send my sincere sympathy. May your hearts focus on the myriad of wonderful memories of joyful times.

Dear Marian,
Just to let you know that I'm thinking of you. I'm so sorry for your loss. May the love and support from your family and close friends help you through this very difficult time.

Dear Doug, Jeff and Madison your grief in the loss of Craig at such an early stage in life is beyond our comprehension. At the same time we expect that words of condolence bring little comfort at this moment. Nevertheless, please know that we have heavy hearts for Craig's passing and deep compassion for your pain. From years of marvelling at your dedication to your children, we know that you can take comfort in the knowledge that Craig became the wonderful young man he was because he was filled with love from a father whose entire being was devoted to his children. Because of your love and devotion Craig was well prepared for and worthy of whatever was to come. Craig surely left this life knowing how deeply he was loved. God Bless.

I went to Bell High School with Craig and altough he was only in a couple of my classes we still talked throughout high school and he was a fun guy to be around especially when he was in Mrs. Ward's music class with me I'm very saddened to see him leave us so early, But I hope he is in a better place. Craig you were a great guy and I'll miss ya pal. God Bless!

I was good friends with Craig when we were at Castlefrank and Katimavik. I really enjoyed going to his shows and wish we could have stayed in contact better through highschool. This is all so sudden and is quite a shock, I wish that I wasn't in New Brunwick at this time.
Keeping everyone in my prayers.

One of the toughest things in our lifetime is loosing one of your own children. Our son Aaron were very good friends with Craig in grade 9-11. Most of the times he would go to Alexs's house on weekends (which was a lot) Craig would be there!
Aaron is currently in Switzerland and won't be at the memorial service. Jo-Anne is working but I (Brian) plan to attend. Our blessings to you at this so tragic time. Let God wrap his everloving arms around you and your family.

Dear Doug, Jeff and Madison, the pain that you suffer in your loss of Craig so early in life is beyond our comprehension and our condolences probably do little to lighten your burden. Nevertheless, please know that our hearts are heavy for you. We know that Craig was a wonderful young man because he had a father who was totally devoted to preparing him for the challenges of life and who loved him with all of his heart and soul. Craig takes his leave knowing that he was loved. God Bless.

To the entire family;
We have many fond memories of Craig during his OSC days, and the times he spent with our family and others at Camp Fortune. From the other comments in the guest book, he seems to have really enjoyed his band also and had quite a following. You are all in our thoughts and prayers.

To Craig's family and friends, you do not know me but trust me I know what emptiness you all feel. My son-in-law passed away Sept 19th at age 29 after fighting a brain tumour for 2 1/2 years. I know you may think that we had much longer time together, but it doesn't matter how long or short we have it still hurts the same. My brave son-in-law was a child care worker and spent his young adult life working with children. It has been 7 weeks and feels like yesterday. The pain in your hearts feel like a sledge hammer, but as people say it gets easier with time, I still don't know when that is, but I do know that the good memories are what you need to talk about, as well as the crazy things. This is what keeps them alive forever. My sympathies to everyone, from a family who understand.

Craig was always happy, and having fun. He always gave me a smile or a laugh, which I could not help but return, and he's an extremely smart and talented guy.
I'm disheartened that I won't be able to attend saturday, but my heartfelt condolences go out to everyone who was lucky enough to know him.
His positive influence on everyone he knew will live on.

I had the benefit of knowing Craig while playing in a band with him in highschool as well as playing many a show with Eppiphane. As a band we never stopped praying for him and his family. God Bless

Dear Marian, Doug, Jeff, Mike, and Madison!
All our family got to know about Craig's disease with the deepest regret and sadness. The worst thing happened to your loved son and brother, and so now we are writing and saying our words of sincere condolence to you.
From the very first day that Craig was in the hospital we hoped for recovery. But God took him from you and those who knew and loved this young man, so that only remembrance will stay in our hearts and souls. With our memories, you, Craig, the Person, will live on forever!

I have known Craig since Castlefrank E.S. and I've been friends with him since. This is all too sudden and I wasn't able to get a chance to say goodbye one last time.
He always made me laugh and made me happy. I am never going to forget him. He will be greatly missed.
Keep on rocking Craig, keep that dream going.

Craig, it seems that we barely had the opportunity to get to know you. You were always a special welcome to our home and there can be no comparison to the happiness that you shared with Emily. There never seems to be the words I want to find in expressing my thoughts. In spending an evening with your family, I have seen that you have brought a lot of happiness to the many people that were lucky to have known or met you. Craig, it is apparent that you have left volumes of great, kind, fun and loving memories for those close to you. This unique and special quality of things "Craig" will live on in everyone's memories. Very best, you will be missed. Dave Palmer

We learned about Craig this weekend and it affected all of us greatly.
We know Craig as a talented musician and wonderful brother and son. Our whole family is thinking of you and hope that our thoughts help support you a little.
We would have been there with you at Craig’s memorial service, but a family medical circumstance takes us away.

Our prayers are with you at this time. Our son, David, was one of Craig's guitar buddies at Bell and he has wonderful stories to share. There are certainly no words that can ever give you more healing then to know that he is with His Heavenly Father.

I only knew Craig a short time, but he was a wonderful young man. He meant the world to my daughter Emily, and brought so much joy to her life. Craig was so easy to joke with and be around, and we both shared a love of music. In fact, he got me interested in playing the guitar again. I know he's probably jamming with Jimi Hendrix right now. I'll never forget you, Craig, and I know Emily never will either. God bless you. From Lyall, Greta, Taylor, Emily and Caitlin.

My thoughts and prayers are with all of you during this time. Knowing and caring for both Craig and Jeffrey in their early years was such a delight.

Such a great little guy and I am sure an outstanding young man!Just so full of energy and smiles! God Bless.

I did not know Craig personally; simply enjoyed the music of Eppiphane, his band.
Know that the wonderful things he did and person he was will forever live on in the hearts of those who love him.
