He was born in Plattsburgh on July 27, 1979 the son of Ronald and Sandra (Trombley) King, Sr.

Craig loved spending time with his Goddaughter and all of his friend's children. He could put a smile on any one's face with his goofy self. He enjoyed collecting hot wheels, swords, knives and dragons. The collections he had over the years was something else. Craig also enjoyed bowling with his friend, Kevin and others throughout his life. The love he had for his family and friends was unconditional. Most of all he enjoyed making others smile.
