019. CRAIG

Craig is my brother-in-law.  He's married to Robin!  I've got a ton of things I can say about Craig, but the fact is, they're all basically the same thing.  

Craig is very important to me.  He and Robin include me in their family on a regular basis and make me feel important.  For that reason alone I think he's amazing!

He's one of those guys you meet in school or work with such a laidback casual manner that you're quick to laugh with him or trust him.  As a student of the law, I see him as a highly effective attorney.  I think people would open up to him because he exudes integrity and strength.  I've also noticed how sensitive he is when it comes to the people he loves.  His children adore him!  They're constantly telling me about him in one way or another.

In simple terms, he's a decent guy and that's hard to come by these days.  

Personally, Craig always includes me in the conversation and makes an effort to talk to me when the family is together.  I'm easily one of the few who could end up in a corner watching every happening around me, but Craig has a knack for bringing people out of their shells and helping them feel included.  Even in the most hectic environment.  

I greatly appreciate his friendship!  He went with me to a concert a couple years ago because everyone I knew ditched me and no one wanted to go.  He stepped in and tagged along.  I had a blast!  We chatted in the Parking Lot near a Chinese Restaurant after the show and talked about our shared love of music.  He doesn't pretend to be something he's not and he's a lot of fun when you're hanging with him socially.

I feel extremely blessed to call this guy my brother!  He's built an amazing family with exceptional children, a wife I couldn't love more even if she weren't my sister and a circle of close relatives who lean on him when times get tough.

Craig is an example to me.  I respect him and cherish him as a brother.  

Craig is a reason for being.
