As a kid Craig loved to play baseball, football, Taekwondo and loved to torment his little sister Leah more than anything. He worked on the rigs as a laborer, foreman, equipment operator, and numerous other positions; he was a jack of all trades. Craig loved to be outdoors whether it was camping, hunting, fishing, dirt biking, and numerous other activities.
Craig’s greatest joy was being a Daddy to his 2 year-old daughter Bradlie. He took the role of being a Dad very seriously. Changing diapers, feedings, and recently potty training. Where ever Craig went Bradlie would follow, he looked forward to buying her a dirt bike.
Craig was a loving father, son, brother, nephew, cousin, and friend. We will miss you and love you forever Craig, rest in paradise.
A private graveside service will be held.
