Craig enjoyed the outdoors: golfing, hunting (especially bow hunting), and fishing. He also loved road trips out West and to Daytona Beach. Craig enjoyed spending time with friends and family. He was afflicted with a love for Alabama football. Craig worked 34 years for Resolute Forest Products (Augusta Newsprint). He was a lifelong member of Magnolia Baptist Church and served as a deacon for many years.
