Craig: I miss you, I think about you every day, when my mom told me you passed away, I collapsed in her arms. I was so mad at myself for not going to see you. I knew you wouldn't want me to see you in the condition that you where in, so I didn't, now I terribly regret that. I remember you as a sweet, funny, and kind-hearted person. I also remember our camping trips, and those Fudge Striped cookies you gave me whenever I came over. Love, Emilee

Man, there are so many memories I have with Craig! He was my friend,a second dad to my sons, and my husbands best friend. He was our family! I cannot say enough about the man that welcomed my whole family into his family. I will always remember the time I was in charge of taking care of the roses he ordered for Denna on their anniversary and I put them in the refig. and thought it needed to be colder so I turned the temp up and killed the roses! Craig ran with that for years HA! I was always his little cherry picker! I was blessed to have known him and loved him. I will look forward to the day when I can give him a big hug and kiss! and let him know what a wonderful life I had with him in it.

Dad- You are a amazing person and will be missed! You were a great father in law that anybody could ask for! Words can not describe all of the fun that we had together for 14 years. I can remember the frist time I meet you, you gave me the nickname of "Pearl". I will always be your Pearl! You mean a lot to me and the girls and would do anything for us. It just feels like I am in a dream right now and I will wake up and you will be here. I just want you to know when the girls have big things going on in the lifes I will be the first one to tell them that you will be there with them in there hearts. When they dance at there wedding I know you will be standing right beside them and dancing with them like you and Makayla would in the living room. I know these girls meant sooo much to you and know you meant the world to them. God took the best grandfather any child could have. To leave in a funny note I can see you standing in front of me and doing the trifecta dance because you scored. Toast to a great man and great grandfather!!!!! I will miss you and I love you Craig Vance. Crystal AKA Pearl

My buddy Craig...My words can not describe what an AMAZING man you are. My family and I are truly blessed to of had you in our lives. I knew the first time we met you and Denna we would be in your lives forever. We became friends and you made us part of your family. I am truly thankful I have all these wonderful memories...Great memories of our times together. Man, we had a lot of fun! You and I were sitting around a campfire looking up at the stars in the sky, you told me something about the stars that night that I will never forget. Ever since then I would look up at the stars and think of you. You are my bright shiny star...Shine on Craig, you are living the high life now. Love you and will miss you...from your "Sandy" Mandy

My thoughts and prayers are with Craig's family as they push through their loss. I remember Craig from Dowagiac as an old school mate and then later as he brought his manager skills to GL Perry in Niles. Rest now, my friend. I'll be thinking of you.

You've all been in my thoughts since Dad told me about Craig's battle with cancer. My heart is very heavy knowing the heartache you all have already and will continue to endure. Growing up as part of the Hornung tribe, I was always so excited to see Craig, Denna, and the boys! Craig and his contagious laughter, Denna with her grace and charm, and those two mischievous boy cousins, surely a trait genetically passed on by their father. Today, I raise my glass and toast Craig….Cheers.
Much Love, Chris Hornung (Chrissy).

Craig had alot of patience and a great sense of humor when it came to all the pranks I played (and with a little help from others) on him. To name a couple: One day, on a quiet afternoon, I paged him and typed in the number 666. We heard his pager go off and he said, "Whoa, the devil wants me to call him." Another time, Cheryl and I got a hold of two of his cigarettes and loaded them up with bombs. We sure didn't think he was going to leave, but he did. "Boom!" one went off as he was driving to meet Carrico for lunch. Then, "Boom!" again went another in the restaurant. I could hardly talk when he called and wanted to know if I knew who done it. Of course I told him I didn't know, besides I'm sure he knew it was me. I just knew he was going to come back, call me into his office and tell me to close the door behind me for a royal chewing, but he didn't. The only time he did that was when he gave me a raise! He was the best boss you could ever ask for and I've never worked for another one like him. I will truely, truely miss him, but at least I have alot of great memories...
