Mementos

An (in)famous alumnus of Grove City College, Craig B. Richardson passed away under the capable supervision of Tidewell Hospice staff, surrounded by his family and friends. A fun-loving humorist (""flowtee"" was the term he used to describe his adaptation of the goatee [a liberal under-chin hair line]), unyielding contrarian (""Do not walk on the grass"" signs failed to clarify whether one could drive on the grass, much to the dismay of his alma mater's grounds keepers), collector (anyone in the market for some oversized drums?), and bibliophile (consider reading his favorites: Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance, Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, and Confederacy of Dunces). His was an approach to life that was bound to break some hearts while leaving most wanting more. He will be missed. Craig (aka Dad, Bop) is survived by his mother Joan, brothers Duncan (Liz) and Alec, sister Susan, former wife and friend Kathy, sons Cam (Elizabeth), Garrett, and Ben (Shannon), and granddaughters Adeline and Annawynn.
