I can not believe it has been almost a year since you have been gone. I still think of you every day. And talk about you ofton. It is very weird, not being able to run into you at places you would think you would be at. I have to say the day of the memorial, you would of been proud. So many people came out to celebrate your life. You enriched all of our lives by calling you a friend.
God Bless,
Kristen Newton

I was so shocked to see the bulletin today with Craigs obituary. I am so very sad, Craig was always so fun. I remember the first day he moved here from Chicago I was the first to talk to him in class. It was Mr. Day's 6th grade class at Pine Hill. I would tell him he was just a city slicker and he would call me a country ..., cant repeat it but makes me laugh every time. I will miss running in to him he was always so fun. I send you my sympathy and prayers.

To lose a son/daughter/child is the most heart breaking thing that can happen to a parent. I'm sure many of you already know this. Our family is broken and will never quite mend. We shall miss Craig for all the good things he did, the good times we had and just because he was our son and brother. I only wish I could bring him back.

Craig touched the lives of so many of us. I can't help thinking about the times I would run into him around town. He always made me smile. I remember him talking about how proud he was to be a good dad. His smile was ear to ear! My prayers go out to all his wonderful friends and family.

Lois & Harlan, Debbie & Sue, family & friends:
We were so shocked to read about Craig's obit while we were on vacation in Grand Marais. I called Linda and she shared with us the news about Craig. Will miss his mischevious ways, including the time he worked on Linda & Eric's mailbox & wierd grass mowing. We will miss seeing his "chick magnet red car" at Linda & Eric's. We consider ourselves fortunate to have known Craig, who always knew how to have fun and cared much about family & friends! Know that we too, are thinking of you all, and keeping you in prayer.

Our Dear Friend Craig, we are both so shocked and saddened by this news, and we want to thank you for your friendship and kindness, something we will always remember.
When you moved back into town, we had such fun rebuilding our old friendship. My favorite memory is that first night, when my sister Melissa and I ran into you after I hadn't seen you in years, and we all talked & laughed all night long, and it even snowed towards that April morning. That is such a special memory to me, as Melissa died shortly after. You were so good to me after she died, checking on me often, making sure we were ok, offering your friendship as I was having such a hard time and you wanted to help. I'll always be grateful for that. Now you are gone too...also too young, too soon.
I was so happy to see you when I was out celebrating my 40th a few months back, fun to catch up and have some laughs, I'll miss that. I will always cherish my memories of you Craig.
Our thoughts and prayers are with You, Devin, Sue & family, your Mom & family, your sisters Debbie and Linda and their families, and your wonderful crew of friends.
We'll miss you Craig, and we'll think of you often.

I was not fortunate enough to have ever meet Craig, however the love and support from Sue and his friends on Monday night was very evident. May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

My heart breaks for all the friends you leave behind (and there are many). Things will certainly be different without you in their lives.
As for me, you always laughed at my jokes, and I thank you for that.
