Cindy & Family,

Words cannot express what you all are going thru right now. It's so hard and sad when we have to say Good Bye to someone, especially when it is so sudden. I pray that our Lord gives you all strength, comfort and faith in knowing that he will take very good care of Craig. May our Lord carry Craig to his Heavenly Kingdom and give him peace. May our Lord also wrap his loving arms around each of you and soon replace the sadness with all the wonderful memories that you all shared.

God Bless,
Patty Martin/Stone

Farrell and Dorile, I extend my deepest sympathy to you on the loss of Craig. From everything I have read, I can see that he was a good and wonderful person. I can't imagine how you feel, but losing a child is probably the worst thing that can happen to a parent. May God bless you and your entire family.
