Craig MacArthur

Ronald “Craig” MacArthur, 56 of Pasadena, Texas went peacefully into the arms of our Lord on Saturday, April 5, 2014 after a courageous battle with lung cancer. Craig was born on June 14, 1957 to Patsy Ann and Ronald Charles MacArthur and spent a large portion of his childhood in Deer Park where he later graduated from Deer Park High School. He worked as a skilled systems analyst for Emerson Process Management for many years. That vast knowledge led to various hobbies including building and riding mini dirt bikes, building and flying remote control airplanes, star and planet gazing through homemade telescopes, relaxing at the beach, and most recently, playing family games. His loved ones fondly recall that there was seldom a fairly matched game of Trivial Pursuit when Craig played. His head and his heart were unmatched.

Craig is preceded in death by his mom and dad, Patsy Ann and Charles Douglas Green. He is survived by his loving wife, Robin MacArthur; daughter, Courtney Belcik and husband Michael; father and stepmother, Ronald and Teri MacArthur; grandmother, Lois Elliott; sister, Donna Ditta and husband Mike; sister, Sherry King; sister, Debra Green-Painter and husband Mike; sister, Wendi Taylor and husband John; and numerous nieces, nephews, extended family, and friends.

Visitation will be held Thursday, April 10, 2014 from 5:00 to 7:00 p.m. at Grand View Funeral Home in Pasadena, Texas. Funeral services will be held on Friday, April 11, 2014 at 12:30 p.m. at Grand View Funeral Home with interment following at neighboring Grand View Memorial Park.
