Craig Ihrig

IHRIG, Craig - On October 1, 2007, Craig, devoted mother and grandmother passed away peacefully at home among her family. She was 82 years old. As a young girl, Craig loved music, art and poetry. She attended Westridge School for Girls in Pasadena, where she had the opportunity to sing under renowned conductor Howard Swann. After graduating, she became a featured soloist on radio station KWKW Pasadena, singing popular arias and art songs. Craig was a mother of three girls. Throughout their family life, she and her daughters enjoyed being involved in a variety of performing groups as well as community musical theater. In daily life, she couldn't help but convey her love of all things beautiful through her passion for her garden as well as her interest in antiques and interior design. Her lovely home was always rich in color, warmth, and life, with interesting things to delight her grandchildren in every nook and cranny. Our mom will be greatly missed by all who loved her, but she leaves a legacy of beauty and appreciation for the arts for her children and grandchildren to carry on. She is survived by her daughters Tracy Leighton and husband Lloyd of Yuba City, Allison Zuehlsdorff and husband Scott of Laguna Niguel, and Dana Falls and husband Mark of Santa Rosa. She dearly loved her eight grandchildren Peter and Liz, Lacey and Cozi, Travis, Carson, Maya and Brock. Friends are invited to attend a Memorial Service on Sunday October 7th at 1:30 p.m. at Daniels Chapel of the Roses, 1225 Sonoma Avenue, Santa Rosa. Private inurnment.
