I will miss my visits with Craig. He was a great neighbour and Dixie always checked the garage to see if the door was open so she could go over and have a visit with her friend. My deepest condolences.

Judy and family and Ralph and family. So sorry to hear of Craig’s passing. Our condolences to you and your families. We always enjoyed those impromptu visits when he’d drive by and stop for a visit while we were working outside. He was a funny, kind man and will be missed. Many a times we would see Judy and Craig at the Hagersville Restaurant for our Friday night dinner. Rest In Peace, Craig. Lovingly remembered, Jo-Ann & Peter Duns and family

Craig was always going to buy me tractors as he knew I had one and wanted no more.
I always teased him he was always leaning on the shovel while working for Almas’s
My sincere condolences!

It is with much sadness to learn of Craig’s passing. Craig loved to tease with that devilish smile which always left you in a better mood. He was a trusted hardworking employee with the R.F. Almas Co for many years. A good man with a genuine caring nature that endeared him to many. My deepest condolences to Craig’s family.

My old neighbour Craig had a huge heart, great sense of humour and I will always be grateful for him as my neighbour. Not only for all the help he was to me but the way he could brighten any day ! I can still picture him chasing a bat around my house with a book while I held the door open ! Lol Craig you are missed greatly already & will be for a long time by many friends & family. Though we wanted you still on earth, God wanted you back home with Him. May you Rest In Peace until we see you again. Sincerely, Carleen Rushton
Hey Craig ! Don’t forget to leave the gate open !
