Craig,
I’m sorry for you and your family’s loss of a vibrant young man. Sounds like he packed a lot into his years but what a shame to miss the future years he could have had. You all have my prayers and condolences.
Condolences to the Weinaug family. Please be assured that one day we will see our loved ones again happy and healthy. Jesus promised at John 5:28 & 29 that “all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out.” I pray this promise along with loving memories fill your heart with comfort and peace.
I’m so sad to hear the news about Charles, I attended high school with him and he always made me laugh and smile. We did get into some trouble back in the day, but those were the memories we had made together. Sending love and prayers to the family.
My heart goes out to you, Amanda, and Charles’ family. Hope you find strength in the beauty of the spring, and peace and comfort in the light around you.

May God Bless you and your family. There is no greater pain to loving parents than the pain from the death of child! Patti and I will keep you, your wife and children in our thoughts and prayers.Please let me know if there is anything I can do. You have done so much for so many in Lawrence/Douglas County!
Our heartfelt sympathy,

We are sad for you, and sad that the world will not have your son doing all of the things he loved and rejoiced in doing. Clearly he left a wonderful family to mourn for him, to remember him, to preserve that memory. We are thinking of you.
Dear Craig and Family,
Please accept my condolences.
Craig (& Family), I am so sorry to read of the death of your son. I did not know him, but I know you. I have had occasion to call you with questions over the years. You are polite, knowledgeable, and a refreshing change from the usual interaction with government. Please accept our deepest sympathy upon the unexpected loss of your son. I know how difficult this is. We will be praying for you and your family, and hoping HE lessens the pain. God Bless You All.
Craig, Sally Don, and family;
We were deeply saddened to hear of the unexpected loss of Charles. You have our greatest sympathy, and our thoughts and prayers are with you and Amanda during this difficult time.
We only wish that we could be there for you right now, embracing you with our love and comfort. May God of grace give you comfort and peace during this time, and may the love of those around you help you through the days ahead.
Our Love and Deepest Sympathy,
Paul and Sherry
Becca,
Shane and I send our condolences to you and your family. It looks like your brother packed in more life in his 32 years than most of us do in an entire lifetime. His picture shows a contagious smile and I am certain he was a beautiful human being. I am so very sorry for your loss and will continue to pray for comfort and peace in your family.
Sophie, Shane, Sydney, Sabrina, Travis, & Scarlett
Amanda,
I am so so sorry that Charles is gone. I am here for you anytime and for anything you need. I’m sending comforting vibes your way. I’m hoping that you are surrounded by love at this time.
Your friend,

Craig & Family,
We are devastated to hear of your son’s death. This violates the laws of nature in that we should never precede our children in death. I strongly believe that a person continues to live on through those they have touched in this world. Charles obviously has left a great void in many peoples lives, but he leaves you to carry on his memory and work. He will long be remembered and missed.
We share your loss.
Bob & Patsy Moody
