Dear Mrs. Dylewski, Hayden, and Family:
Over these many months my brother Paul has shared your updates of Craig. We kept you, Hayden, and Craig in our daily prayers. We remained very hopeful at every positive turn. My brother so admired Craig, and we can fully understand why he speaks so highly of him. My husband and I wish we had been honored to meet Craig but through your updates we feel we do know him a little and WOW what a treasure of a man. Yours is a true love story. Craig's love of you and Hayden never dies; hold him tight in your heart. It is said that one reason God gave us memories was so we could have roses in Winter, may you soon replace all your sad memories with memories of all the joyfull ones that you two made together. Celebrate the gift of Hayden a product of your love and Craig's. May God always hold you, Hayden, and your loved ones in the palm of His hand.~Marianne Bates Barg~ My husband Jeff also joins me in sending our love, hugs, and prayers to you and your loved ones.

At age 15, Craig was a member of my freshman religion class at St.Francis Xavier Church in McKean. At the beginning of the school year
(1990-1991), I asked the students to fill out
An address card and to share what they consider to be both their positive and negative personality traits or qualities. These are Craig's two responses:
1)"People usually think I'm athletic. They also think I'm friendly, caring, and unselfish." 2)"I usually don't like to tell people that they are stuck on themselves.” Craig was a delightful teenager and a welcome addition to our class. I felt it important to share this with your family. Please know that you are in our thoughts and prayers at this most difficult time. With Our Deepest Sympathy, Carole and Jack Preston

There are no words to say to comfort you or take away the sting of what you are going through. Craig is now at rest. He fought a tough battle for as long as possible. Please remember that there is a Hello after your Good-Bye and that you will all be with him alot longer than you will be without him. God has taken his tired child home and at the exact same instant gave you your own personal guardian angel to protect you. Heidi and Hayden when you can on a clear night look to the sky and pick out the brightest star that you can find and know that Craig is there shining for you.

We just can't believe the news. We were so honored that you let us take your wedding pictures four years ago. We remember the carriage that was on the porch of the Riverside and it said "do not touch", Shani and I thought that it would be a good picture to have you stand in front of it, Craig said "no lets get in it", no matter what the sign said, and it was one of your best pictures of the day. He was so funny, and seemed to live for the moment. We will be praying for you, Hayden, and the rest of your family.
