Everett Andrew Craig
June 29, 1923-March 17, 2011

It is with heavy hearts that the family of Everett Craig announces his passing at the Moose Jaw Union Hospital. Everett was a man of great strength and courage, enduring and surviving many health issues most of his adult life. His number one passion was his family, doing anything he possibly could to provide for and take care of all of us, never thinking of himself. Everett was a farmer through and through, he was happiest out on the land. He loved every aspect of it, and even in his later years after he quit farming, it was his favorite conversation to have with anyone who would listen! Predeceased by his wife Margie (2007), brothers Elwood, Cleave, Lawrence, and sister Ruth Whitaker, brother-in-law Doug Whitaker, sister-in-law Jeanette Craig. Everett is survived by his children Neil Craig, Garth (Kristy) Craig, Patti (Brian) Johnston; grandchildren Jennifer (Bruce) Wirth, Susan (Richard) Perron, Ashley and Haley Hills, Ryan and Brynne Klippenstein, Evan Johnston, Mackenzie Craig; great-granchildren Aleisha Wirth (Brian Kinch), Chereese and Mikayla Wirth, Donavan Perron; great-great-granddaughter Nikita Kinch; brothers Bud (Rayma), Doug (Orla), Ken, sister Fern (Roy) Tollefson, sisters-in-law Phyllis Craig and Dorothy Craig, and numerous nieces, nephews and cousins. Special thanks to the staff of Capilano Court for their excellent care and support over the last three years. In lieu of flowers, donations to the Crohns and Colitis Foundation or the Alzheimer’s Society would be greatly appreciated. A Memorial Service will be held on Monday, March 21st, 2011 at 10:30 am at Parkview Funeral Chapel. Kelly Cameron, Funeral Director. 694-5500.
