Nance, Jay, Bart, Lindsay and Ryan, Can't express how sad we are at Craig's passing. John and his wife Meg were here the first week in April and we toasted Craig and "Uncle Craig Week" at Washburn. To this day, we call the last week of July into the first week of August "Uncle Craig Week"...remembering the kids piling in his truck and going deep into the woods to get firewood, Uncle Craig's patented fire-starting method, and staying up long into the night sharing stories around the campfire. Those were such happy times and such great memories. Love to you all,
The Lydon Family.
