Mary and family -
We just heard the news of Craig's passing - and we are so very sorry to hear of it. It has been a very long road for your family these last couple of years.
I'm sorry that we have not kept in better contact with you.
Know that we are thinking and praying for you. Words just seem so inadequate to express the feelings we have for you at this time.

We were very sad to hear of Craig's death. He faced every challenge that came his way with grace. We shared many laughs and have very fond memories of him. He will be remembered and missed.

I've never personally met Craig but have heard many good things about him from my co-worker, Mary Cummins. She had much respect for him.

Mary & family,
Sorry to hear of the passing of Craig. I first got to know him about 13 years ago when I worked as an intern for the Agri-Growth Council. Over the years he served as an "unofficial" mentor for me, always willing to answer questions and listen. I enjoyed working with Craig, especially his approach to issues and his sense of humor. His essence lives on through the people that got to know him.
God Bless,

Mary and Family,
I have very fond memories of Craig from when I was a teenager. Craig always did his best to make me feel at home when I was with his family. We had a lot of fun playing cards during family gatherings. Craig sometimes come over to our house. Harlan and Craig would make me laugh a lot when we played cribbage. You have all been in my thoughts and prays.
God Bless,
Debi

I will miss Craig. I worked with him as an employee of the Howe Fertilizer Company back in the 1980's. Then, upon being elected to the MN House in 1996, I once again had the honor to collaborate with him. Over the last seven years, Craig and I worked together on many pieces of legislation. He had a great sense of humor and I really enjoyed 'ribbing' him as often as I could. He was a true professional and a wonderful person. His smile will be missed in the halls of the Capitol.

Mary and family,
My deepest sympathy to you and your family. Craig will be missed by all. I know his family was always foremost to him. He was one of first associations executives I met when I took my job over 18 years ago and I always enjoyed my association with him.
Sincerely,
