I just now saw a documentary that Mr. Craft was in. I hope someone was able to assure him that when wakes up the first person he sees will be Jesus. I wish I could have told him how precious he was to God. I plan on looking him up after I sit and talk with Jesus for awhile. God´s blessings on all of you.
