I've known Craig since we were 8 years old. He and Blaine Smith were at Westminster College playing baseball, and they asked me if I wanted to play. That was the start of a long friendship.We played basketball at Edgehill Ward. Craig was always great at whatever sport he played, a natural athlete. He had lots of Trophyi s. There is as a group of us when we were 14 years old and we played basketball at Garfield on the 8 foot baskets, the Professional Garfield b ball Association. Craig was John Havlacheck. Craig was a great guy, we had a lot of fun together and I will miss him...glad he is at peace, but we all will miss him.
