Condolences

Craig was an amazing coworker. He joined my directorate as a replacing manager and we hit it off immediately. He was easy going, always answer unscheduled calls and was a voice of mentorship, and camaraderie.

I will miss hearing his voice, having him voice his concerns as a team player and most of all, the chance to learn from him and his experiences.

J’offre mes condoléances à la famille de Craig. Il était avec nous depuis un an au bureau, et il a laissé sa trace. Sa dédication, son enthousiasme et ses blagues du vendredi matin vont nous manquer. La vie est si fragile. Bon courage !

Craig and I joined a new section on the same day. Kindest man I have known. I was grappling with the most challenging and traumatic phase of my life – and during those dark days, it was Craig who helped me see light with his unwavering positivity, encouragement and wisdom. He was a good listener and helped dissect problems with such clarity and compassion. This unique ability to break down complex problems, negative energies into manageable pieces empowered me on a personal front to face my fears with new found strength. His mentoring wasn’t just about offering advice, it was about instilling resilience and hope!

You will be dearly missed my friend!

It is with profund shock and deep deep sadness to hear about the loss of Craig. The sorrow is heart wrenching and I simply am unable to process this – how is this possible? why do the best leave us so soon and so suddenly. It gives pause to reflect on all that we take for granted. Stephanie, Hailey,Melanie and all family, my prayers are with each of you to give you the strength and endurance to face all that is ahead of you with the courage and smile that Craig would expect. With loads of love.

Craig was my manager and quickly became a friendship. He has an amazing work ethic and was immensely dedicated to his work, spending numerous hours off the clock to his family’s dismay.
Stephanie, Hailey, I am sorry I was not there to help him through it. Know that you cherished you both immensely.
Craig you are going to be missed buddy.

I was deeply sadden to hear of Craig’s passing. For the short time I had with Craig as my manager, it was a pleasure and honor working with him.

My sympathies to the family.
Craig was such a positive person and it was a real pleasure to work with him in the RPA project. He will be missed.

I am profoundly saddened and heartbroken at Craig’s passing. Although we began as colleagues, we quickly became friends, confidants and each other’s cheerleaders. Above all Craig was an amazing human being that cared so deeply for others.

While I hope Craig took something away from our friendship I can say with certainty that he has taught me a lot about being a manager, parent, friend and good person!

Stephanie and Hailey, Craig was so proud of you both and you are both lucky to have had him in your lives. I’m so sorry for your loss. May good memories of him bring you strength and peace.

Rest well, my friend!

It seems some of the brightest lights in this world leave us far too soon and we are left without the words to understand. Craig was one of those lights in the workplace, He brought genuine energy, positivity and would always lend a hand to his team members and colleagues. He was the roll up his sleeves, let’s get it done person you would always want on your team or to be a part of his. I fondly remember sharing many a lunch meeting with him and the EFT team at Boardroom ‘L’.

It is with deep sadness I offer my condolences to his family. May the best of him remain with you forever and you find strength together to keep his memories close.

Over the last 10+ years, we worked often together on many initiatives. You taught me a lot when I started as a team leader. You always had a good way to handle anything coming at you. Always a that great smile.

I worked only 2-3 months under his supervision. He was SO kind and motivational person. I had a chat with him before the weekend that I cannot forget. May God make it easy for his family.

Stephanie and Hailey, my heart breaks for you!
Craig was a dear friend and colleague for many years! He was funny, thoughtful and full of energy. We had an ongoing joke of the day between us for about 10-15years! I will miss him dearly ❤️

I feel very fortunate to have worked with Craig and to have had his support and camaraderie behind the scenes over the past several years. I really admired and respected how genuinely he cared about people, and cared about how the work he was a part of was not only quality work, but work that would have a positive and enabling impact on others. His comments to me were always insightful, spot-on/common sense, and very helpful. My condolences to his family and friends – he was a genuinely lovely person, whose intellect, experience and advice i respected and listened to.

My heart is broken and part of my weekly sunshine has been clouded over. Craig and I have been good friends a very long time and I know he was there to help anyone at any time, hard dedicated worker and a great leader.

I am heartbroken at the news of Craig’s passing. I had the privilege of knowing Craig for almost 30 years. From our early years in the NHD to working together on classification in my last year at CRA.

I was privileged to finish of my career with someone as wonderful as you! Rest in peace my dear friend 💔
