So I hadn't known Craig long when I'd heard the news of what happened, we were co-workers and he'd just started in June. I don't have any specific memory of Craig that I'd like to share here, because I didn't know him that well. If only I'd been so lucky! But when I found the website I started reading the different stories about him, and then I saw that list of his personal goals in his obituary. The more and more I find out about Craig, the more I realize what an awesome person I knew.
Although he is gone, I feel like he's doing a lot for everyone still--something it seems like he was always doing anyway. I am so grateful to him because I've been motivated, because of his example, to examine my life, fix it up, and get in back on the path to eternal, real, joy. There aren't a whole lot of specifics for that, but right now I am just feeling so grateful for him, the person he is, and what he's helping me to become. I guess that's weird coming from someone that was a bit of a stranger, but the Lord does work in mysterious ways. :) I am so grateful for the little bit of peace I have in my life now, and the hope I have that the future will be even better. Craig is helping me do that.
