You were the blond headed imp with a forever grin in my class at Sebastian Elementary school. In later years I backed Dale Jarret and you lost. You became my son’s good friend. The spot you held in the Craft family hearts for some forty years will forever be empty.

Shanon, there are no words that truly express the sorrow I feel for you and your family. The memories Mark and I made are forever vivid in my mind, and for that I am great full. I to will miss him, but his infectious smile and laugh will always be ingrained in my mind. “ love ya man “ was his quote every time we parted. RIP Grouper
