Sorry to hear about Craig’s passing. I was in the 75 class, and I didn’t know him that well,. But it is still so sad to hear of him passing at such a young age. My condolences to his surviving family members and close friends.
RIP Slim. Sorry to hear about his passing. Slim was my claasmate and a good fella.
Good times buddy, RIP
You have our sincere sympathy on the loss of “Slim”. Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this time.
So many great memories with Slim growing up in Redwood, a better friend you could not have.
The gentle giant who always had a smile on his face. Whether playing pool in our basement, water skiing on the river, snowmobiling in the park, or tobogganing at the golf course – Slim was the one that always made it fun. Who else had a car that could fit us all and a toboggan inside!
Wanted to send our condolenences to Sydney and family on the passing of Slim, he was a neighbor of our family as we grew up. What a great guy, RIP Slim!!! From all the Barnes family!!!
