I'm sad to know of our loss, and so glad I got to see him at one of the reunions. I told him I remembered him walking down the halls with his pink shirt and under arm briefcase, and how handsome he was! He'll be sorely missed, but so good to know he made such a valuable and loving contribution to this world.

It was at the 25 year mark of his care that I asked Craig if he thought we might call each other by our first names. More years passed and I was both sad and happy to wish him well in his retirement. Such an impeccable professional and kind man.

It was over 40 years ago that I walked into one of Vancouver's dental labs and asked for recommendations for a dentist. Craig Naylor was on the top of the list. It changed my life. His skill and technique and finesse were lightyears beyond anything I had ever experienced. And as a person, you could not ask for finer. You could not help loving this man in every way. He will be very missed by very many.

As a patient of Dr. Naylor's for two decades, I am truly sorry to hear of his passing. He was a superb dentist with the gentlest touch. I always had complete confidence in his work and was, first of all, sorry to see him retire - while I still had teeth in my mouth! - and devastated to hear of his illness and death. My condolences to his family and friends. He was a lovely man.

Craig became part of my family in 1983 when the Naylors and Smiths merged. We still can't believe he's gone - he was far too young and fit when we last saw him at Xmas. Being so far away is difficult when you know your people are hurting - please know our hearts are full of family and fond memories. I will remember him most for his awesome laugh and beautiful teeth (he'll like that;). Rest in peace Uncle Craig. All my love to the family xoxoxo

I am very sorry to hear about Craig. I was first introduced to Craig in the early 80s when I was invited to attend a CARD meeting. His keenness and dedication to dentistry made a lasting impression on me. It was his natural ability to make all that met him feel very welcome He will be missed and fondly remembered always.

Craig had everything!
He shared his gifts generously with his confreres, his patients, his family and his friends. All this with an enviable humility.
His presence lit up a room and his memory will inspire us to emulate him...Harry Rosen
