Carol, I grieve with you and your family over
Craig's passing from this reality to His heavenly Home where there is only Joy and Love and Freedom awaiting him. Craig can now enjoy his passions without the heavy burdens of this life, which is only a vapor.
I honestly believe he can see you and the girls through God's heavenly lens...which is so much MORE than we can even imagine.
I love you sweet one, and just know I will be praying for you as our Lord comforts and blesses you as you continue to "run the race".

With love and so much Hope ~

Cyndi
