Although I did not know Craig personally, I know how loved he was as a son in law to Bridget and Pete. My love and thoughts are with Anna and her girls, and all the extended family, who will miss Craig terribly.

Although we did not know Craig's family, we had the most phenomenal Property Manager in Craig. Authentic, genuine, honest and hard working - he was a rare find at the time for us. Because of who he was he attracted like minded people and as a leader created an impressive team. Thinking of your poor sad hearts at this time.

I worked with Craig many years ago on the Routeburn. Although I haven't been in touch with him for years I'm saddened to hear of his passing. He was a good man and I'm sure that legacy will live on through your girls. Arohanui

The world was a much better place for you being in it, Dowzer. As one who helped me through a tough first few months in NZ I will always be grateful. My memories of you, what you were to everyone and those crazy two years in the mountains will remain with me forever. You were a good mate. Love to your girls and family. A sad day indeed. Thank you for being who you were, you will be missed. x
