"Oh, no. Too soon; too young. I remember Craig in his tween years: he dreamed big and sought to emulate successful men in many walks of life from swimming and other sports to fashion icons and celebrities (he was a fan of the Baldwin brothers at that time). I hope some dreams came true for him. I am so sorry for his family's profound and lasting loss. Please accept my hope for healing and supported grieving and grief. I hope his mom, his dad, his sister, his daughter, and all who knew and loved him find peace in this difficult transition."

"I remember Craig as Michele's "little brother" and laugh at the sibling harassment that would take place between the two. It's been too long since I've known what Criag has been up to but for Michele, Joe, Madaline and his daughter my heart goes out to you. This is an unscheduled departure that breaks from the order of generational passing. I know is not easy news to take."
