 I was so saddened to hear of Craig’s passing.

 We met in sophomore English class, in September 1972.  We sat next to each other, on that first day, but were separated on the second day as we caused too much disruption sitting in such close proximity to one another.
We became fast friends, and spent the rest of our high school years as best friends.

 Craig stood with me on my wedding day.  I had to help him tie his tie. I laugh about that every time I think of it.

I am so glad that Craig and I reconnected in the Facebook era.  He was always a kind soul; he never spoke a bad word about anyone that I recall. I remember him as a decent, caring guy.

He’ll be remembered always by those that knew him.  Rest peacefully, my old friend.

My prayers go out to his family, especially his Pop.

When you lose someone you love,
You gain an Angel that you know.
Until we meet again dear friend.

When I think of Craig, I think of the Buckeyes, He was definitely the biggest fan I've ever known. Rest well Craig and go Buckeyes! My condolences to the family and friends he left behind.
