Craig (and Connie) have been my wonderful neighbors for 34 years. We all built our houses together in the neighbor hood. For the first 10 years, Craig plowed my driveway just because... he was that kind of neighbor. One of my favorite memories of Craig is listening to him sing- sitting on the tailgate of his truck and just singing for the pure pleasure of it. It made me happy to hear him. I will miss this decent, kind man.
