Donald Craig Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
He was born on Feb 6, 1952, in Erie, PA to Charlotte (Confer) Post and Donald Craig Sr.
Don worked various jobs, including one at a gas station where he met the love of his life, Nancy, back in 1972. They were a classic love story up until the end where they endured anything and everything that life threw at them together. While Don had several jobs, he would tell you that his favorite was driving semi-trucks.
Don is survived by his wife of 53 years, Nancy Craig; his brother, Chuck Craig; his daughter, Donna Barrett (Bradley); his son, Donald Craig III; his grandchildren, Heather Eberlin (Ralph); John Sidelinger Jr (Lynsay); Great Grandkids Christopher Jon Sidelinger and Isabella Booze, and many nieces and nephews.
Don is preceded in death by his mother, Charlotte Post; his father, Donald Craig Sr; his stepdad, George Post; his brothers, William and Pete Zeigler, and sisters, Shirley Copeland; Jane Muscarella and Beverly Andrzejewski.
"It is foolish and wrong to mourn the man that died rather that we should thank God that such a man has lived."
