Craig's obituary

Craig Shipley, 34, of Dixon, MO passed away unexpectedly September 1, 2021. His family and friends are shocked and deeply saddened by his loss. Craig was born on October 31 to Doug and Robyn Shipley in Schweinfurt, Germany.  After graduating from Princeville High School in 2005, Craig became employed as a salesman within the car industry. He later joined the United States Airforce and was stationed at Tinker Airforce Base in OK. He most recently owned his own hotshot trucking company, Shipley Transport LLC. He was passionate about the industry and even began his own YouTube Channel to educate others on the knowledge he had gained from the industry thus far.

Craig also loved fishing, any and all types of vehicles and watching his beloved Green Bay Packers.  He was an extremely smart outgoing and kind brother, son, father, husband, and friend.  Craig met Becca Shipley in Oklahoma and soon after moved to Salt Lake City, UT, where they welcomed their first daughter, Mia. Craig and Becca relocated to MO to be closer to family and would later introduce their daughters Emma and Paizlie to the world. Anyone who knew Craig, knew he LOVED his family, especially his daughters.  He had an immense passion for helping others, supporting veterans, and making friends with anyone and everyone he met. His family and friends will miss him more than words can ever begin to say.

The family requests that donations be sent to the account listed on this website and memorials be sent to the Shipley residence. Any donations provided will be utilized for expenses for his wife and daughters. There will be a Celebration of Life held at Craig's parent's home in Princeville, IL on September 25, 2021 from 4:00-7:00. Additional details regarding accommodations will be provided in the near future.
