We never met this wonderful man, but we know and love his daughter, Ali, and her family (including Debbie) like our own. Your heartbreak has been our heartbreak. We have shed many tears for you this week, and have offered up many prayers to the Lord for your comfort. We deeply regret that we cannot be in Michigan with you at this time. How we wish we could physically help carry your burdens and grief. We continue to pray that the Lord will carry them for you and that He will reassure you that He is taking care of the one you love so deeply until you meet again.

I didn't know Craig, worked at Coesse with Debbie and all the kids went to school there. Knew Ali a little because Derek Trier was my neighbor. How very tragic for the family to lose Craig at such a young age. You will carry your memories of him with you where ever you go, and will never forget the fun times that you had as a family together. May GOD watch over your family and help you get through this difficult week.                              Posted by  Priscilla Peters - columbia city, IN - Friend   January 08, 2015

I went to high school with both Craig and Debbie.  They were class sweethearts in 1982 at East Kentwood High School.  I always found it a pleasure to call Craig my friend.  I will forever remember his sense of humor, he always made me laugh.  My deepest sympathies to Debbie and their family.  Craig will be with you all always, and his memory will carry on to everyone through you and all who loved Craig.

Craig started working at WEL a week after I did. Didn't get much of a chance to talk to him much, but he was a good guy to be around during the few times I did get to talk to him.                              Posted by  Captain Kevin - NJ   January 22, 2015

I'm so sorry for your loss.  May God bless you and strengthen you in your time of sorrow.  Sometimes we don't know why God takes people when he does but he knows the reason.  Maybe some things are just not for us to understand.  You will be in my thoughts and prayers.                              Posted by  Earlene Alexander - Columbia City, IN   January 08, 2015

I've known Craig because I was Deb's neighbor growing up. He would play lots of basketball with me, lots of fun when you were around him. Always laughing and joking, just an all around nice guy. I remember their wedding day like it was yesterday.... Then they moved away when he went into the service. The day they moved back to Michigan was great! That's when I met a beautiful daughter LaLa..(Ali). They had a beautiful family, although I feel we've lost touch since they moved to Indiana, I've always had fond memories. I was even excited knowing they were thinking of moving back to Michigan in the near future. I'm so sorry Deb and kids. I know how much you loved him, I know how much you'll miss him. Just know he's still watching over you. a¤i¸                              Posted by  cynda poll - hastings, MI - Friend   January 08, 2015
