My earliest memories of cousin Craig was about the age of 12 or 13. He walked in. He was lean, tall and had the best afro I had ever seen. Wow, it was red. He was so nice, sweet and funny. After this, it would be many years before we met again. But, he was just as I remembered. He was genuine, warm, caring and so whittey and funny. Rest in Peace dear. Love Traci ❤️
Craig and I were raised and grew up on Charley Creek. Our Friday nights were usually spent at their house while our moms cooked, played cards and other things😂.
I just recently came back in touch with Craig through his illness,
I worked at the doctors office that Sissy brought Craig and Mike. Several days before an appointment we would call the patient to remind them of their appointment. While on the phone you could hear the two discussing whether or not they would attend. Naturally they came to an agreement of "no".
Sissy always handled their health matters, so after several months of not having an appointment she calls. They let her know that the patient said they wanted to cancel. WELL that stopped. Sis changed the contact number and the visits resumed.
Anytime their names would come up at work one person will have to tell the new ones of the two brothers trying to get over on the Sister, their caregiver.
I'm sure those two are in heaven telling this story, with those smiles on their faces.
Gone too soon but they loved life!!! ❤️♥️❤️♥️
Craig was my dearest friend for 46 years. There was never anything we couldn't talk about and not be completely honest and not judged. The support between us never waivered. We brought our two families together and each ended up loving and being loved by the other family. I feel he was one of the surprise gifts I received when I wasn't even looking. A bond to last of our lives. I am deeply saddened he is no longer with us. I am also grateful that he is resting and no longer having to constantly fight his own body's illness. Tho, he did it with such grace and kindness. Please fly high, my darling, knowing you were very beloved on this world, and not just by me. ❤️❤️
