Amy
Thank you for all you are doing.
Craig and I are dharma brothers forever. Early mornings we sat together as the light arose at Shoda An.
We had many great conservations with art and other aspects.
Your interviews with Craig are wonderful. Thank you for this. I know how much you love him as your brother.
I miss him…
Thank you

Amy,
Thank you for bringing Craig back to me even if only for a moment. I could feel his presence with me as I watched the videos. It brought tears to my eyes to hear him share that he had gratitude while on his journey.
My fondest memory is dancing with him and a group of friends from Landmark at a Buck Wheat Zydeco concert at Deer Valley Ski resort. I just remember the laughing and dancing the feeling the warm son on my face and the cool breeze blowing and Craig smiling as he danced so freely.
I miss him and think of him often. He is a courageous, inspiring man.
Love,
JT
