Condolences & Memories (6 entries)

  • I was thinking about Craig today. I don't know why, but he ran into my thoughts and wouldn't leave. Just like in days past. Craig was such a wonderful thoughtful friend. I met him in high school and became fast friends along with many more. We would frequently go to Wendy's on our spares for a frosty and hang out/goof off He was such a good person. I will really miss him. Wish you were still here bud. - Posted by: Jill Botterill (Erlendson) (Friend) on: Jan 28, 2018

  • Craig lived four houses down on Civic Street and was our paper boy. He was a few years older than I and I would fill in for him on occasion delivering the Free Press. Craig had a good sense of humour and was a nice guy. Very sorry to hear he passed. - Posted by: Jeff Henderson (Neighbour) on: Mar 19, 2014
