A loving and devoted husband, son, father, brother and grandfather, Craig was a lifetime resident of the Lakeside neighborhood. He was married to his best friend, Kristi Fielding, in August 1982, and they shared a family of 3 children. Craig retired from the Carpenters Union Local 100 chapter in 2008, after contributing to a number of construction projects around the Muskegon area.
