Craig W. Roberts, 80, of Lady Lake, Florida, and formerly of Michigan, passed away on September 1 1, 2025. Born and raised in Michigan, Craig built a life defined by hard work, love for family, and a passion for the outdoors. He was the proud owner of R/O Manufacturing, where his strong work ethic and leadership left a lasting mark. Later, he combined his love for the water with entrepreneurship, founding Fish Wish Fishing Charters, where he shared his joy of fishing with countless others. Craig was a devoted father to his sons, Craig Roberts and Curtis Roberts, and a cherished grandfather to James, Kristin, Austin, Rachel, and Wyatt. His legacy continues through his seven great-grandchildren, who brought him endless pride and joy. When not working or with family, Craig could often be found on the golf course or cheering on his beloved Detroit sports teams. He was admired by many for his kindness, unwavering strength, and dedication to those he loved. A celebration of Craig's life will be held in Michigan at a later date, where family and friends will gather to honor the remarkable person he was.
