RIP Craig. I always enjoyed running into you & catching up with you-seeing you at the car shows. I have known you since we were kids at St. James School and then again at Wesleyville High School. Tell my folks hello & let them know we are all good. Also say hello to my sister Carol-she was in your class, and my friend Gary Snyder from Wesleyville. I miss them all. You will not be forgotten either!
