Craig's death upset me more than I could have expected. It seemed so unfair that God would take such an amazing person. But then I saw his mother's picture in the on the Salt Lake Tribune website. Maybe I'm wrong, but it looks like she has been given the peace that passeth understanding. And I don't think Craig would like me looking at his death this way. He has the most amazing attitude about everything and would want everyone to do the same.
I love Craig's facebook profile pictures, especially those of the one-handed comic book characters. It seems like they all say, "I have one hand and I'm happy about it." I will always remember my conversation with Craig when he stepped into my apartment in his scrubs. We talked about our future careers, and his desire to be a chiropractor hadn't changed since the accident. I asked him how he was going to do that with one hand. "I'm not exactly sure." But he was determined to find out and do it. I am a better person for knowing him, as I'm sure we all are.
