Craig Demar Haynes Jr was an Angel on earth, and now is one in heaven, i miss and think about you every day. If I ever have a friend, who is a tenth the friend that you were, i will be truly blessed. You were a gentleman and a voice for those who couldn't speak, an activist and also a kind soul, a healer and in need of healing. We talked of heaven and i remember your faith was strong. I truly look forward to the day when i get to see you again and feel your embrace. Till then i love you budge

Craig was the most wonderful person i have ever. He was my best friend, he was my room mate, he was my brother. I lost my dad recently and he came to my side in a moments notice. My heart couldn't be more broken. Craig was an angel on earth and the loss will forever be felt. I look forward to seeing you again one day in heaven. Words can't say enough, he was too special. I loved him with all my heart, and will forever miss my brother.

CJ and family~ i don't want to believe he's really gone.. he has been like family to me for years. He was one of my first friends when I moved to Middletown. CJ could always put a smile on everybody's face and he never would let people stay upset. He had one of the biggest hearts of anyone I've met. Even though I hadn't seen him much in the last couple years, each time we'd run into each other it was as if no time had passed at all..He'd give me a big hug and say, "Caiterz!"
I just want the family of Craig to know that he will be truly, truly missed. I know I'm only one of the many people who will always remember him. He was a very special person. Now he'll be making everyone smile up in heaven..
Missing you CJ, Caiterz

To CJ's family and friends: Reading all the beloved memories and notes of prayers, I can see that CJ was loved by so many. He was a friend to my son back in the Little League days and like Jesse said it was always like they had seen each other yesterday and no time had passed. A true friend like that is so hard to find. May you rest in peace CJ and know that there are so many who will miss you but will always carry the laughs,smiles and memories forever in their hearts. Jesses Mom

craige was a great guy, anything he put his mind to he could do it. he always put a smile on my face and everyone's face he knew. he always knew the right thing to say. I will never understand why god took you so soon. I don't know what to say but I wish I could of said goodbye.. my heart goes out to his family an there lose..
Grief can be so hard, but our special memories help us cope though these hard times.
I have memories in my pocket.They rattle among the change. My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go. They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole They give me comfort when I think I am alone. Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there. But of all the treasures I have, it's the memories of you that are the most precious.

"CJ"
What a goofball you were, OMG you were like the funniest person ever. All the times you stayed at our house, or just hanging out with Danielle and Miranda. Danielle told me how she had a good visit with you on Feb 28th in Norwich, she said she brought down a pizza and gave you a stuffed animal. She said you two talked and laughed the whole time.
You will be missed big time by the girls.
My heart goes out to your Gramma and Evie.
