As a clergy spouse, he delighted in his church family, working in the Stonybrook kitchen, and participating in the Coffee and Conversation Sunday School Class. He was a rabid Ohio State Football fan and loved nothing more than having friends over to watch the games. He had a deep affection for animals and spoiled all of his pets over the years.

At his death, he was a National Account Manager with Huntington Technology Finance, Inc., having more than 30 years experience in leasing technology equipment. Craig was one of a kind: Courageous, generous, devoted without question, kind, and full of mischief. He was the real deal – one of those people that made the world more steady and ground more solid. There are no words for how deeply he will be missed. Private Family Service. A Celebration of Life Service for the community will be Celebrated at a later date.
