Gabriel Craig Obituary

Gabe passed away on June 4th after a long battle with Hodgkins Lymphoma and complications of treatment. Gabe was 21 years old and a graduate of Rampart High School. He was an athlete, world traveler, good friend, and great son, who held on to his sense of humor and loving spirit until the end.

Gabe is survived by his mother and step-father Shelly Roberts-Frost and Clifford Frost of Colorado Springs, father and step-mother David Craig and Marge Craig of Kennesaw, Georgia, and his siblings Davis Craig, Isaac Roberts, Cooper Craig, and Camilla Craig, as well as his grandparents, aunts, uncles, and cousins.

In lieu of flowers the family requests that you donate blood or platelets, register to be a stem cell donor at bethematch.org, or donate to The Dear Jack Foundation in Gabe's honor: www.dearjackfoundation.org.

Shelly, I am so blessed that Gracie and I were able to fulfill one of Gabe's wishes. I only wish we had met sooner and could have spent more time with Gabe. Hugs and love from another grieving mother.
