Craig was diagnosed with microscopic polyangiitis a form of vasculitis in 2007 after suffering multiple strokes which left him paralyzed and in a wheel chair. He battled back from the strokes but passed away from heart failure in September 2008.
Craig was an inspiration to me and many others with his brilliant song-writing and musicianship. He was meant to be on stage sharing his music with others. Whether singing and playing his trusty acoustic guitar or with a full band, he made every moment count given the chance to share his music. Everyone who heard Craig play recognized the tremendous passion he had for his music.

I chose this route for a number of reasons. First, I am now 50 years old and thankful to God for my health; second, Craig passed away at age 50 and I know he would have loved this ride.
