To my dear cousin Craig: Laddy, I hardly knew ye...
I do remember you as a child - 2 years younger than me, and Billy even younger - when we all were children. There were some visits, as I recall, when the Dunns lived up East - but our respective families weren't that great at keeping up with the few relatives we had... my mom, your Aunt Edna, was better at it than any of the rest of us - but she's gone, as well.
Too late now, but I so wish I'd known you and brother Bill as adults.
I hope you had a wonderful life! Rest in peace, your Cousin Cheryl Dunn Davis

Hey Cousin Craig in Heaven, it is a year since you've left our small family. You will forever be missed because you touched so many lives and am sure they still think of you often, as I do.
Love and blessings to all who got to know Craig during his life, I just would have loved to have had the same opportunity.
