Sadly I have to inform Thames Valley members, that Craig passed away in the early hours of Saturday 9th February whilst being cared for in a local Hospice.

Craig loved his Porches and in the few years I was priviliged to know him he had owned a 993, 911, 944 and a 968. Craig was an all in sort of guy and was an enthusiastic RO, organising many activities for his region and sharing his ideas about the Club. He was a true enthusiast and will be fondly remembered by all those that knew him.

Our thoughts are with Sheila and Craig's family.

Rest In Peace Pal.

Gina has mentioned this on face book a very sad loss of a very special person. I learned of his illness when I attended a TIPEC meeting late last year whilst in Maidenhead. Our thoughts go out to his family Ian J

Sad to hear, Craig will be missed. Parked next to him at the first Hatton & tried to get his 911 started. RIP Craig, let's hope there are Porsches in whatever place we go.

Craig was a tremendous guy, always enthusiastic and happy with a positive outlook even in his darkest times. I was amazed at how he wanted to as much as he could in the time he had left, awesome.

I'll remember all the great drives we had, the nights out and Christmas parties with him and Sheila.

Thoughts are with Sheila and his family.

Godspeed mate.

I have some fantastic memories of taking Craig with me on several trips to the Nurburgring & Spa. Always great company, full of enthusiasm; he always handled life's ups & downs in the same cheerful & optimistic way.

We always used to joke that the only time I ever got pulled over at the Eurotunnel for an explosives check was when he was in the passenger seat - he said he must look like a terrorist, but a nicer, gentler man would be hard to imagine. Another standout memory is of him driving my GT3 for 2 laps of the 'ring on a damp track. I can't recall ever seeing an adult behave quite so much like a child that Santa has just delivered a longed-for present to. Go & re-read his report of that trip in All Torque #90 to get a flavour of the man.

RIP Craig, I'll miss having you in my passenger seat

It's very difficult to know what to say.

I've been lucky enough to have known Craig for around six years now and in that time he became a very good friend.

It was me that persuaded him to become our regions RO, well actually I asked him to take on my position as ARO, only to find out the same day that our RO had just resigned.
So with much trepidation Craig took on the position as RO as long as I agreed to stay on as ARO and help him out for a while. that was well over 3 years ago and Craig being RO is reason i'm still here now :D

Craig will be a great loss to us all and he will be sorely missed but never forgotten.

Here are a few snaps of the Big Man

I remember my first visit to Thames Valley Region just after I bought my first Porsche which was a 968. Craig made me very welcome and introduced me to everyone.

I last saw him at an event back in the summer and despite his problems he was still cheerful and giving everything his unique blend of enthusiasm and humour. A true gentlemen if ever there was one. The world in a poorer place without you Craig. You will be missed.

Rest in peace.

I didn't know Craig, but i'm sure I met him - was his 911 a Black Targa LHD? If so I went with my mate who ended up buying it.

Very sad.

Very sad, must have been about 18month - 2 years ago now and I think he was in one of the Porsche Mags a while back with his 968 that he got after the Targa, seemed a stand up guy.

Condolences to his family.
