Wayne (Craigy) was a good and true friend. We were co-workers and best buddies. I will always remember him. My thoughts and prayers are with Jan and all of his family.
Wayne's (Lillard) warmth could be felt as soon as you walked into the Craighead home. Within minutes, he'd have you laughing. His tenderness and joy over his family made the Craighead home one the best places to be on a sunny summer day on their back patio, or in their cozy kitchen on a cold winter night. He and Jan are an inspiration to how a marriage is a partnership and most of all, a friendship. Even their teasing of one another would make you smile. Wayne's strength these last few years revealed his love for life and his family. He is an endearing soul that will remain in the hearts of those who knew him.
We love you, Wayne (Lillard), Jan, Donna, Steve, Steven and Peyton.
