Joyce and family - I remember Craig from the days at Wolfson and from all of his "techie" knowledge..I was amazed by him!  My heart and prayers go out to you.  I would have been in touch sooner but am just learning of Craig's passing.  May peace and comfort find a way into your days and nights.  Know that I am thinking of you.

Joyce and family, I have fond memories of Craig in my Graphic Arts class at Wolfson High School. He was a true techie. I can remember his whole face lighting up at the mention of computers and all of the intricacies associated with those machines. I nodded my head as he spoke, pretending I understood what he said.  He was a fine young man and one of the bright spots of my day. I know he will be missed by all.

Joyce, so sorry to learn of Craig's passing. My heart goes out to you and your family.

Life isnt the same. I have missed you everyday since you have been gone. I love you

Joyce & Craig, We send our deepest condolences to you both.  Our long time friendship we've had with you makes you special to us.  Please know that we are thinking about you and are here for you.

Craig was one of the nicest, friendliest people I have ever worked with. He will be greatly missed.  My prayers are with you all at this time.

Craig was simply just a genuinely nice guy with a good heart.... what you saw was exactly what you got.  He will be sorely missed.  May he rest in eternal peace.

Craig was a blessing to all who knew him.  He was a rare gentleman and for many reasons ‘my hero'.  One day, a trip to Old St Augustine turned into the most perfect day.  We walked and talked, but more special was during our comfortable silence looking over the bay.  That perfect day, my feelings for Craig went from liking him a lot to something more.  I am so thankful for that time and all of my fond memories of him.  God's grace is with Craig's family as prayers are lifted for them.

Dear Joyce and family, I was so sad to read about Craig's passing.  I remember him as a good-hearted, cheerful, attentive student in my English class. I am sure that he made quite an impact on this world in his brief life. You all are in my heart and prayers.  May God grant you His peace and soon!

Craig was a great guy and wonderful friend to all. I'll always cherish the memories we made back then.

I remember when Craig first came to Nemours.  He was so engaging, helpful and polite.  He had such an enthusiasm for what he did - and that never changed.  He never got tired to helping others with whatever they needed.  We're all so sad that he's gone.  We will miss him.  He made a huge impact on all of our lives.  Mr. and Mrs. Littlejohn, Jackie, Gus and Logan - you are in our prayers.

I'll always remember the first day I met Craig. I am so shy at times but it was so easy to talk to him, we sat on the 9th floor and talked for over an hour. That conversation lead to frequent emails until I had to move to Alabama. Then came the texting. Thank goodness for unlimited texts.

I don't know if he actually liked talking to me or if he was just being nice...but he answered every time. I was so homesick a lot of the time so he just kept talking to me. He was wonderful that way.

We talked about everything but nothing in particular. He would talk about how some of his favorite times were working on his plane with his dad. And how proud of himself he was that he was a DIY kinda guy. How much he liked being in his shop. How he loved the purple beer because it tasted "grapey." We talked about how excited he was when he became an uncle but he didn't think he wanted kids of his own. One of my favorite conversations had to be when he told me I was right about some gas powered boat he'd said he bought. With him, that was the only time I was allowed to be right.

We talked for about a year then life got in the way and we drifted apart. He was an amazing guy and a great friend when I needed one. The world is a sadder, more technically confusing place without his smiling face and vast techtastic knowledge. 

Craig, the world will miss you, Nemours will miss you, I miss you. In my mind you will be living happy and healthy in Orlando with your fabulous new job and your amazing new life.

I am in shock to hear Craig is no longer with us You will truly be missed   I will forever remember your cute face and somewhat shy personality  I remember when we all went to adventure Landing we had a great time  Truly Craig will be missed by  so many people that loved him very much including me My prayers go out to Craig's parents for peace in knowing that they shall see him again God Bless  rest in peace Craig

My deepest sympathy.  I felt Craig was a close friend as well as a co-worker.

Craig will be greatly missed by everyone at Nemours.  He could solve any technology problem and always did so with a smile and great sense of humor.  It was impossible to be in his presence and not feel lifted up and encouraged.  My deepest condolences to his family.

Craig was such a great person.  Always had a smile on his face and always willing to help.  He will certainly be missed. I am still having a hard time wrapping my head around the fact that he's gone.  My thoughts and prayers are with his family.  May you find peace.

I was priveledged to have Craig as a part of my family as he grew from a child to the young man he became.  He was simply "one of the boys" with my sons, and spent many hours playing games, doing puzzles, watching James Bond movies on TV and having "cannonball" competitions in the pool...he did make the biggest splash, and laughed in delight at my "surprise reaction" when the water sprinkled me.  

As the boys grew up, I asked Craig what he wanted for his 21st birthday, and his answer showed the influence of those Bond movies:  "A bottle of Dom Perignon champagne, please."  (He got it, too!)

Craig may no longer be here physically, but the memory of his unfailing kindness and gentleness will always be with us. Joyce, Craig, Jackie, Gus and Logan: please find solace in knowing that Craig's spirit will never leave our hearts.

Craig loved helping people. You could see it every day in the way he approached his job and interacted with everyone around him. His smile, attitude, and especially his laugh were contagious. You always felt better when you finished talking to him even if he couldn't solve a problem. It's because he truly cared about helping people. We miss you buddy.

Always ready to do whatever it took to help out, Craig, your dedication and your light hearted humor will be missed by all

Our thoughts and prayer are with the Craig Family Nemours South family.

Craig will be greatly missed at Nemours. He performed his duties with enthusiasm, passion, creativity and empathy for us who sought his help.

He once "upgraded" my hopeless computer by retro-fitting it with a mysterious hunk of hardware. It was ugly, but it worked, so he dubbed it "Frankenstein". Every time I bumped into Craig he'd laugh and ask how Frankenstein was doing.

We remember Craig for his commitment to excellence and his can do attitude. We looked forward to him bringing these attributes to our team. Thank you for all the times you were there to lend a hand. Your contributions to the entire Nemours family will be greatly missed. Our thoughts and prayers are with Craig's family and friends during this difficult time.

Craig was the best of everything and loved by so many.  I so enjoyed working with him. He was patient, kind, courteous and funny.  There was no tech problem that he could not solve. I will miss him - all of Nemours will miss him. No bond is as great as that between a parent and child. My deepest condolences are with you as you grieve.

Craig was one of those people that you remember even years after meeting them. On the most stressful days at Nemours, I could always count on Craig to not just smile as he passed by my desk, but stop and ask me how my day was going. He was kind through and through. May he rest in peace and may his family know that he is in Heaven with his Father and maker.

My heart goes out to Craig's friends and family.  I can not imagine the pain you are going through but I pray God will comfort your hearts, as only He can do.  

Craig was the 2009 Associate of the Year at Nemours ... a well deserved title. We will miss your smiling face and friendly demeanor.

My prayers go out to you at this time. Craig will always be remembered as a very nice person who was always helpful. He will be surely missed.

Gone but never forgotten.
Craig was such a kind, fun person. He always had a great attitude and never turned you away when you needed help.I remember many days of laughter and smiles. You will be greatly missed, I pray your family finds peace. May god rest your soul.

Craig, you were one of the finest human beings I have ever met.  My life is better for knowing you.  I can only hope to be half the good person you were.

Craig was an excepcional young man, smart, kind, funny,  just all around good. He was a constant presence in my division, always helping us at Nemours with the computer or gadget issue of the day. Craig was a real pleasure to work with, always trying to help. This is a great loss, and we miss him dearly. I pray the good Lord will give his parents and family strength and comfort in this difficult period.

May God's arms envelope Craig's family with grace, peace, and comfort through their time of grief.  Find solace that you will once again be reunited in His Kingdom.  
Craig was an intelligent, vivacious, giving man.  His laugh and smile were infectious.  My heart will fill with joy at every thought of him.  Though our time together was short, Craig will long live in my memories.  It's an honor to have known and loved him.  Prayers and Blessings~

Craig and I went to grade school together.  I was sadden to hear that such a nice guy was taken so early.  He always had a smile on his face and was friends with everyone.  Craig, may you rest in peace and my your family and friends find peace in all the amazing memories you have with them.

Craig's smile would warm the halls of Nemours and his laugh would make everyone happy. Our hearts are broken, but they will heal yet we will never forget. Many many blessing to everyone affected by this tragedy.

My heart goes out to the Loved ones that Craig and I talked about those many hours we worked to keep everyone up on their cell phones for many years. He was always "happy to help", and everyone was glad when he came to help. "Craig will know how to fix this". Craig will be missed everyday at Nemours. My deepest sympathy to Jackie and Gus and his Parents. My Thoughts and Prayers are with you all.

I remember when Craig started with Nemours out at Bayard, I thought to myself what a happy looking man, as I got to know him his looks fit his character. Rest in peace and heaven should have the most fastest internet speeds with Craig on the job .....

A truly great person and friend, you were always willing to help anyone and everyone. An aquarium afficiando, no doubt. The world lost a a Great Man! God Bless.

Craig was such a great person – funny, very smart, and always kind.  All this and that smile, is what we should remember in Craig. He will certainly be missed.  Our thoughts and prayers go out to his family.

My heart goes out to Craig family.Craig was really good to me I will miss him so much.Craig was such a nice Guy and will be missed by many.

My prayers are with you all at this time of sadness. May your memories of Craig always put a smile on your face. He was a lovely young man who was always willing to help out with the techie stuff

Craig you will be sorely missed, especially the way you lit up the room when you walked in.  It saddens me that I will miss our conversions, and the way we laugh at the crazy things that life throw at us.  My thoughts and prayers go out to his family and his many friends.

Craig was a true team player - and a very smart one!  No matter what the problem was, Craig could fix it . . . and if he couldn't initially, he stayed on it until he could.  He was a kind person, always willing to go out of his way to help.  There were many times I needed his expertise, and he was always there . . . Always caring and compassionate.   I never felt as though I was imposing.  You will be truly missed by many.  Rest in peace.

My heart goes out to you at this time and in the days ahead.  Craig was well loved, and will be missed by all.

Didn't know Craig Jr. but heard a lot about him from Craig Sr. His Dad was very proud of him and I'm sure he'll be missed. I extend my prayers and condolences to the family.

What an amazing person you were. The last 5 years knowing you was not nearly enough. Going to a conference and having Dim Sum will never be the same, and buying plants at the flower and garden festival will not be nearly as fun. You were a true friend i wish that we could have spent more time together recently. You will be truly missed.

Later Bro.

We are all just numb with this sad news and its so hard to wrap my head around it. I was sitting in the Canteen at work with Craig last Friday talking about his new roomates, his dog, new job, and his upcoming move - How happy he was that day...How glad I was to have had that time with him.  I will surely miss him he was loved by so many.

I spent the majority of my adult life with Craig, we had a loving relationship, and filled our time together making great memories. We spent years planning our future, although those plans fell through, he was my first love and because of that he always had, and always will have, a special place in my heart.

Craig had a smile I will never forget, a contagious laugh, and he was passionate about a lot of things. He was always willing to help out a friend, and he loved his family dearly.

Although losing him fills me with great sorrow, I know he is at peace and my heart goes out to his family. 

Mom, Dad, Jackie, Gus, and Logan, you are in my thoughts and prayers.

Craig was an example of what a good friend and co-worker should be. He was always cheerful and willing to lend a hand; we will all remember his sunny smile and his identifiable chuckle. Prayers and thoughts go out to his family and loved ones.

Craig,

Today would have been your 32nd birthday. I don't know where to start.  A lot has gone through my head the last few days and it's still unbelievable to me.  I just think of all of the things from the past. Hours and hours of swimming, the famous blue chair, the good luck charms for bowling, the weed whacker motor boat guy, countless days fishing and shrimping, the fire pit, blowing up a thermometer, oh and wait the toothpick burning on the stove at Napo Dr.  The list is endless.  Although we haven't spent much time together recently, it seems like yesterday when we were children and had so much fun.  I'll miss you, and you will never be forgotten.

Love you bud.

Words cannot express the sorrow Im feeling right now. I pray he is at peace and knows just how much he meant to me and those around him.

Craig was my other little brother.  I always watched out for him.  He sent me a text a few months ago and said "You were right."  I couldn't help but laugh because that was a big thing for him to say.  

Craig is one of a kind.  He tells you what is on his mind without a filter.  
We've taken so many trips and always had a great time.  He has such a great personality and a wonderful heart.  

Mom, Dad, and Jackie...I love you all dearly.  You are all in my prayers.

To my dearest cousin Craig, you will be greatly missed. I am so glad i was able to see you the last time i came to jacksonville, reminising on old memories, listening to great rock and techno, and laughing at the ways we have grown. It's very hard to believe your gone especially now that i moved so close to you i was hoping to make lots of memories with you. I will hold you very close to my heart, and i hope we can hangout in my dreams. I hope you are enjoying yourself whereever you are, my best wishes to you cuz as well as cousin Jackie, Aunt Joyce and Uncle Craig SR, i love ya

Every memory I have of Craig is him having a smile on his face.  He was very kind always willing to help.  Craig and his family are in our prayers.

You and your family are in my thoughts.  You will be greatly missed.

Craig and I always joked about him being my other son.  I have wonderful memories of him.  He spent a lot of time at my home with my other kids, and could always be counted to show up for dinner, particularly on spaghetti nights.  Craig would eat anything though, particularly if he had a huge bottle of Heinz ketchup.  He talked me into a lot of projects.  I remember many trips to the lumber yard so that he could get wood for some project or other, hours spent crawling around in my backyard working on the garden.I remember the gigantic stocking he brought to my house for Christmas, which I promptly filled with Heinz ketchup!  He showed great fortitude in coming to my home to work on my computer when, as usual, I had made an incredible mess.

I was fortunate to be able to call him my "other son" and my dear friend.  He will be greatly missed, but never forgotten.

Craig was a very loving, good hearted person. He befriended just about everyone he came in contact with and had a very outgoing personality, he got along with most people. We love and miss you already. There is always a special place in my heart for you. Love Amanda

Craig was a great guy.  Always pleasant, always willing to help out, he will be missed.

Craig was so passionate about his job & the underlying connection to providing top notch healthcare to children.  He will be missed deeply.

My thoughts & prayers go to his family & friends during this difficult time.

Craig,

I love you with all my heart and I will cherish every memories we made together. Words cant describe the pain and emptiness I have inside me. I will miss you for the rest of my life. I love you so much Craig.
