I have spent the last couple of days thinking about my brother in law. Lynn Taylor at Rouse Funeral Home wrote this for his obit. It pretty much describes him perfectly.
Craig served four years with the United States Navy. He then embarked on a forty year career as a professional truck driver and for the last twenty seven years worked with Southeastern Freight. He was a member of Garris Chapel United Methodist Church. Craig was well known for his sense of humor, his ability to tell a story and his love of family and children. He was an avid follower of UNC basketball, enjoyed surf fishing, a round of golf, cooking on the grill and cutting the grass. Craig also enjoyed Western movies and attending air shows with his brother.

Craig was diagnosed with cancer in December of last year, about a month after I was diagnosed. One of the traditions in our family was that Craig would cook homemade biscuits for everyone on Christmas morning. Last year when Diane and I were about to leave his house, Craig walked up to me and said, "Brother in law, this might be the last Christmas biscuits that we have together." I never for one minute would have thought that his prophesy would come to pass. In fact, I would surely have thought that I would be the one to go first.

News flash: God has a plan. It's all about Him.
Are you ready for it?
