John Barrett Craig, 68, passed away on Monday morning, January 2, 2023.  He was born in Somerset, Kentucky, on January 21, 1954, and was the son of C. C. and Margaret Craig. John had an amazing voice and sang in church and school groups in his younger years. John attended UNC at Chapel Hill for college and was a lifelong Carolina fan. He loved going to Carolina football and basketball games throughout his life. He also enjoyed playing tennis and basketball.

Married February 12, 1977, to Anita Gail Roberts of Goldsboro, NC, they have two children: their son, Brian Russell Craig, and wife, Joelle Elizabeth, of Raleigh, NC; and their daughter, Laura LeighAnn (Craig) Bonfiglio, and husband, Michael Salvatore, also of Raleigh, NC; and three grandchildren: Abby Elizabeth Craig, Sawyer John Bonfiglio, and Charlotte Grace Craig. John has one sister, Ginny Craig, of Raleigh, NC.

John’s wife, children, and grandchildren were the loves of his life. John was a devoted husband, father, and grandfather. He was a man of God who always put others first, and his life was marked by humility, kindness, strength, patience, faith, and joy. His blue eyes twinkled, especially when he spoke of his grandchildren or Carolina sports. His mischievous humor, inherited from his mother, could always bring a smile.
