I love you guys! Hang in there.

Kelly, Girls, and Family ~
Thinking of you! It was just a few years ago I bumped into Kelly/Craig downtown Stillwater and then shortly after Tina at Ruby Tuesdays. You are all in my thoughts and prayers as well as my families prayers (Deb & Dawn). I'll never forget Craigs smile and larger than life heart. I have fond memories of your family growing up next door to you. Kelly tanning and taking us kids to Square Lake Beach. Craig's love for Tina and Jess & he always was busy with a car or something in the garage & your dog, Butch. Only the good die young as Billy Joel sang. Craig was definitely a good one! I know this is a huge loss for all of you. Reach out to your family and many friends and of course any of us D girls. We'd all love to get together with you.

Kelly, I am SO sorry to here of Craigs passing, I know that everyone thought of him highly and he was always willing to talk, laugh and joke when I saw him. I wish you strenght in these times and wish I could be there for you.Have faith in the future, Clay Parks Tikrit, Iraq

Craig,
Thank you for being such an incredible presence in our lives. You were more than a brother-in-law. You WERE my brother. Thank you for loving my sister the way you did. For 28 years, she never had to doubt your love and devotion to her. For that and many other special qualities your brought in to our lives, we are eternally grateful. I hope you know how much we all miss you. Please guide us with your love from heaven as we struggle to learn to live without you. Rest in peace you crazy, sweet, wonderful man. Know we've got you covered here and we are watching over your family for you! Just keep our backs from heaven and help us arrive safely one by one when our time comes. Each of us look forward to the day we can look in to your smiling face again! Love you so much - Koleen

Kelly, My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

Dear Kelly,
I wanted to tell you if you need any help with anything you know you can rely on family and friends such as I...Craig was a kind loving and tough human being all at once...so many dimensions and so very multifaceted in his wonderful existence on this earth...he was always very good to me and my family over the years and always always had a wonderful happy smiling countenance about him and a sense of humor to match the best...I will cherish those moments i was able to talk with him at all of our many many years of family gatherings and fondly recall them in my memory for the rest of my time on this earth...and his help with my Keg stand especially...thank you Craig for being the highest caliber of excellence to which any human being can aspire and you will be sorely missed by every person's life with whom you have touched...and Kelly again let me know if you need anything at all...
with love your cousin...Jeff

Dear Kelly & family -

Craig is my cousin and my best friend, always. He will never be far from me because of the times we shared and memories made.
I love you, Cuz.

Dear Kelly,
I don't even know what to say. One thing I said to my girls is "I will never quite understand why terrible things happen to such beautiful people." My heart has broken for you and I know that you have the strength within, from all of your great friends and family to get through this. It will take time but you have always been such a strong and amazing person. BTW for all the times you run into my sisters and Mom and tell them to tell me you say "Hello", please know they always tell me and I always love hearing that. Back at you a million times! Please stay strong and my thoughts are with you!
Love you!
Lori Smith, aka Balfanz

So sorry to hear about Craig - when we just saw the two of you at the graduation party. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

Dear Vick Family,
I am so sorry for your loss. I'm a friend of Craig's from Woodbury High school. I feel very fortunate to have known Craig. He was one of those special people that you just can't say enough nice things about. I'll always remember that smile. You are in my thoughts and prayers...

Kelly,
I am so very sorry to hear about Craig. I have so many wonderful memories of the both of you. I am so thankful that we got to see you at the grad party. Know that your family is in my heart and prayers.

To the entire Vick family,

As kids we don't usually "get" the whole picture. Maybe it's just the way we remember things but - the first time I saw "Crazy", he scared the heck out of me! When we were young he used to hang with what I perceived to be some questionable characters.
That thought makes me laugh now.
It wasn't until Cliff and I got to be friends (and through Cliff) that I got to "really" know Craig. Craig was definitely "Not" someone to be scared of. After getting to know him he treated me as a brother, in fact, he treated everyone that way. After high school I moved away from MN but the few times I did return to visit Cliff (not often enough) Craig would always be there.

Cliff, Laura and family - I can not imagine the thought of losing one of my brothers, and, hearing the news of Craig tore my heart out. I can not begin to express my heart-felt sympathy.

To Kelly and your family, you have my family's deepest condolences.

The Vicks,
After delivering a "few" pizzas to you guys over the years, we have all gotten to know each other quite well. There are very few people I deliver to that stand out as much as your family. I normally hated to take the "long" deliveries, but would always drop everything to take yours. You are all great people, and everytime I have delivered there it was always laughs, and smiles out of everybody. It always bugged me that I was working, as I would have loved to stay there and hang out rather than go back to work. You are such great people, and I am very sorry for your loss. Craig will be missed by many. If you need anything at all please let me know. My thought's and prayer's are with you all.

Kelly and family: So so very very sorry for your loss. Charish the wonderful times you had with him and what a great life he had and how proud of you and his family he always was. How fabulous it was that he did get to spend precious time with his grandchildren. May God make you strong. You have a large loving family to support you. You will NEVER be alone.

Kelly and family,
Our thoughts are prayers are with you during this difficult time. May you find strength in your family and friends.
Fondly,
Lauri & Russ

dearest Kelly and family, how devestated we are to hear of this tragic lose. I close my eyes and can not imagine the pain you must feel. What a wonderful man we all were blessed to have known.

Kelly and Family,

I spent a lot of time with Craig (Crazy) growing up. Although we separated as time passed, when we would come together it was as if there never was a gap. Craig was a great man with deep devotion to family and friends. I am truly sorry for your tragic loss.

Tina and family,
Sometimes life is not fair!! My heart aches for all of you. I know the days ahead will not be easy - remember to take it one day at a time.

Charismatic is an understatement. His Love of his family and Zest for Life is contagious. Craig packed 70 years of Living into 50. He will be dearly missed....

Kelly,
I am not even sure what to say to you right now except that I am very, very sorry for your loss. Craig was a great guy and always had a smile on his face when I would see him.

He was passionate about his riding his Harley, and being in the company of his family and friends. We will be keeping you in our thoughts and prayers at this sad time. Our sympathy goes out to you and your family.

Kelly, Tina, Jessie & Family,

There are no words I can say that will ease your pain and sorrow. I can however let you all know that my love and prayers are being sent your way.

I just wanted to send out my thoughts and prayers to Craig's family. I had the chance to visit Craig and Kelly's Farm years ago when they hosted the OHS Dance team for a night of food, fun and preparation for a football game. It was a beautiful place filled with a beautiful family! I am so sorry for your loss.

Kelly,
Deepest condolences to you and your family in this time of great sorrow.

Greg and Angie

Dear Kelly, Tina and Jesi: I was incredibly sorry to hear about Craig. I have such fond memories as a teenager growing up as neighbors to you and Craig. What I remember most is your love and adoration for each other throughout the years. It was inspirational to see a couple who was truly in love like you and Craig. I feel there are never any words to console such a loss. You are in my thoughts and prayers for serenity. Know your friends and family love you. Dawn your former babysitter on Oak street

My heart goes out to the many people who's lives Craig has touched. There is a rare breed of person in the world who can make anyone feel they have a friend for life that can always be depended on. A person that even if you barely knew them, you knew they cared. Craig was one of those rare people, and the world is a lesser place without him, while heaven just got a bit nicer.

Vick Family,
Im so sorry for your loss of such a great guy. I will keep him in my memories and prayers.

Kelly & Family,

We are deeply saddened by the tragic loss of Craig. He was a great friend who will be deeply missed by us and countless others. May your many wonderful memories give you strength in the days ahead. We are grieving with you.

Love, Scott & Debbie Lund
