Craig Welling Kimball

Elder Kimball was the missionary who taught me the gospel and blessed my life in more ways than I can list. So sorry to hear he has passed please accept my deepest sympathy. Tonight as I said my prayers his memory came to my mind so I looked him up to find this news. So sad but know we will me again.

I remember Craig from early grammar school at Fair Oaks Elementary School. If I remember correctly, he lived in an apartment complex at the corner of Sacramento St and Hill St. I lived on Hill St. Both of our residences were within walking distance of Fair Oaks Elementary School. I remember Craig as having a bubbly personality and a big smile. I have just recently been looking at our old school photos and was making lists of names to match the photos. And I saw Craig's photos in grades 1-3. It sounds like Craig had a good life. I am pleased. I am going to add 3 class photos for grades 1-3. In grade 1 Craig is in the first row, actually the first student. I am the student right next to him in row 1. In grades 2 and 3 Craig is in row 3. Signed, Allen Johnson formerly of 4101 Hill St, Fair Oaks, CA 95628, now living in Georgia with my middle daughter at 41 3rd Ave SW, Cairo, GA 39828.

What remember most about Craig is the sparkle on his eyes, the particular sound of his laughter, his unique sense of humor, and his sincerity. He was a great mentor and a beloved friend, he will be missed terribly. My most sincere condolences to his family.

Brooke and Scott, we were so sorry to hear of your father´s passing and hope you are enveloped in the Savior´s love. I didn´t know him personally but he has left an incredible legacy with you two and your darling families.

Craig was a warm and friendly person. He had a keen ability to retain all sorts of trivia or statistics which made him a great conversationalist. He never missed an opportunity to to have a great sit down talk about current affairs. I know he will be sorely missed by family and friends. My deepest condolences to all his extended family. ~Rebecca V
