I was saddened to hear of the passing of Craig, although I had heard he was fighting against the odds. As a life long friend of the family having grown up with the brothers and sisters on Mandell road. So I rightfully give all sympathy and condolences to Mark, Kevin, Scott, and Lisa. Having heard late tuesday I was unable to attend in person ,so I pass on my feeling of grief to all concerned.
