Craig was born, raised and still resided in Port Washington where he appreciated the history of the small town on Lake Michigan. He was often seen and recognized driving in his red convertible. He cherished memories of weekly visits with his childhood friend, Dane Anderson. Craig’s favorite place to be was up north at his cabin on Robert’s lake, where he enjoyed “fun-in-the sun” on his boat with family, friends, and dogs. Craig loved waterskiing, which he accomplished every summer with longtime friend, Mike ‘Zelmo’ Boede. Craig will be remembered by all for his contagious smile and laughter. He will be deeply missed by family, friends, neighbors, and classmates.

A Celebration of Life in remembrance of Craig will be held this summer during Fish Days weekend in Port Washington. More details to follow.
