My brother's death  / Diane Craddock (Daughter)

My baby brother, Alan Russell Craddock (51 years young), died suddenly on February 27, 2009. He leaves behind to cherish his memory: son, AJ; daughter, Courtney; brother, Don; five sisters: Anne, Dorothy, Diane (me), Carol, and Sandy. We miss him very much.

I tried to create a website for him on February 28, 2009 but it is not working (I tried again this morning April 9, 2009). I was praying that the memory-of staff could correct the problem but I have not seen any movement in this direction.

To my sister Anne  / Diane Craddock (Daughter)

You are his oldest child and I love you very much. I enjoyed visiting you in Utah when I was traveling with Tommy (my husband), about six years ago, when he was driving across country for a long distance trucking company. Thank you so much for the wonderful hospitality for a sister you had never met before. It was a pleasure to spend every minute (too short) we had together.

I know I gave you my apology over the phone for leaving you off the list but I want to put it in writing too! Please forgive me for my oversight. I wasn't sure if you wanted me to include you as Dad had obviously not been very "fatherly" in your growing up years. I did not want to upset you or your precious Mother by automatically putting you on the site. I should have asked you when I called to let you know about Daddy's death. Again I pray you have forgiven me. Please post a picture of you on the site to go along with the other siblings.

I was sorry to hear about your beloved Mom's death. I'm only a phone call away if you need someone to chat with.....I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers. God bless.

My father too  / Anne Timpson (1st daughter born to him and Florence Craddock )
I did not know him well. He married my mother during the war, and left shortly after I was born.  I was able to finally track him and we kept in occasional contact.  Ola was a kind and generous person. Close

My heart goes out to you and your family  / Debbie Blantz (angelmom)
Dianne I just wanted to say my heart goes out to you and your family in the losses of your parents. I can't imagin losing both parents and so close together. This is a beautiful web site that you have made for them Close

Wonderful Daddy  / Judy Blackburn (friend of Diane's )
The love you shown still carries on, for Diane is kind, considerate and sweet. She obviously learned some things from you. Close
