Craig Daniels Obituary

Daniels
August 21, 1948 September 15, 2018
Family and friends were extremely important in his life. Holidays were a great time for him to dote on his grandsons who affectionately called him Papa. He loved fishing and watching vintage Western movies.

Psalm 90:10 says that the days of our years are 70 years, And if because of special mightiness they are 80 years. May the memories of the wonderful times you shared together bring a smile and joy in your heart.
