Awaiting METALLICA — with MOTELLICA and & CRAIG EN EM

I love you!❤️   Happy  50th Birthday Craig.

I was heartbroken when I heard the news of Craig's passing. I am so sorry I was unable to attend Craig’s memorial today, but you all were in my thoughts an prayers during this difficult time. Craig was such an sns[I ration to not only myself but to everyone’s lives he had touched. I had never met any one with the strength and endurance that he had for life, he never gave up… but he now has finished and he won.  My Granddaughter is 14 and so strong, when she thinks of her Dad she says he is still with us and looking down on us (she then says he won). Kim I’m have never met you or your boys but feel like I know you from the love that Craig showed us through his Facebook page.  I had not seen Craig since Verizon shut their doors in Franklin, but saw him at Alexander’s Deli on Mothers Day 2021. We both looked at each other knowing we knew who the other was, but did not realize it until I got home. That is when I reached out to Craig and he shared his journey with me.  Kim I have so enjoyed watching yours boys grow and would love to continue.  Continued prayers for you, the boys and extended family during this difficult time 🙏🏻🙏🏻

My wife, Jennifer Howze Thomas and I, share our deepest condolences with Craig’s family. We have followed his fight since diagnosed and prayed for him daily. I met Craig at Gaither High School, when we made the JV football team as 10th graders new to high school. He went on to play tennis for GHS where my wife was part of the co-Ed team. Craig was always a gentle soul and loved by many. We will continue to pray over Kim and their sons, that they continue through this difficult time.

Craig was a strong spirit and even a better person, The lord has a plan for him even though we don’t agree with his timing. He will be missed and loved forever by many. 

We are so sorry for the loss of Craig. He lived for his family, took pride in his family, and fought like a champion for his family.  May you find comfort in your memories and peace in His love. 

Kim and family,

I am deeply sorry for your loss. May you find comfort in the wonderful memories you have with Craig.

“The Lord bless you and keep you. May his grace shine upon you and give you peace.”

Numbers 6:24-26
