Craig Alan Carr, 73, passed away on December 18, 2025. Born in Nevada, Missouri, Craig was a devoted husband, father, grandad, and friend.
He shared 52 loving years of marriage with his wife Linda Carr.
He was the proud father of Tamora (husband Jeff) and Carrie (husband Paul), and a cherished Grandad to Lily and Jessie. Craig is survived by his sister Susan, his brothers-in-law Andy and Ron; his sisters-in-law Judy and Patty; his mother-in-law Patricia; and many loving nieces, nephews, and extended family.
He was preceded in death by his parents Kathal and Robert, his sister Sharon and his brother Stevie. Known for his humor, kindness, and storytelling, Craig loved sports—especially the Dodgers and Rams—golf, and most of all, time spent with his family.
