Craig was such a good guy, so full of life, a guy that did things the right way and enriched the lives of those that got to know him. I'm so glad I got to know him through my sweet daughter-in-law and her marriage to my oldest son. I always enjoyed talking to Craig and will cherish those times we shared with our grandchildren.
I flew alongside Rais’n for many years at VF-201. He was known for his excellence as a Radar Intercept Officer (RIO) in the backseat of the F-14 TOMCAT. All of the RIOs in the squadron looked up to him as a role model and mentor. More recently at squadron get togethers I learned of our mutual love of fishing and we shared many stories of our adventures. I regret that we never got to get together to fish as we had discussed. Godspeed Rais’n, you will be missed by all who knew you.
