Raymond Lewis Craig

Raymond L. Craig, 69, passed away peacefully July 13, 2011 surrounded by his loving family.

Born April 29, 1942 to the late Joseph and Hazel Craig; he was born and raised on a family farm off Bonney Rd. and Kentucky Ave. in Princess Anne County. Mr. Craig was a master craftsman with the VBCPS for over 20 years and was a manager with Food Fair and Pantry Pride for 30 years. He was a man with a huge heart that had a smile and a helping hand for any of his many friends or anyone in need. Anyone that met Raymond instantly loved him and became a friend. He would gladly give anyone the shirt off his back. He will always be remembered as a loving husband, father, grandfather, uncle, and friend. He will be deeply missed.

Left to cherish his memory is: the love of his life, his childhood sweetheart and devoted wife of 47 years, Carol Craig; a daughter, Michelle Craig; granddaughter, Kaitlyn Craig; sister, Rita Leser; and brother, Earl Craig. He is preceded in death by both parents and a brother, Donald Craig.
