Our most sincere sympathies to the family and friends of Alan Craig Wednesday September 9th 2020..
Death notice for the town of: Brockville, Province: Ontario
My deepest sympathy to Millie, Ken, Sarah and families. I will remember Alan for his sharp intelligence, keen interest in the world, kindness and grace. He was always such a classic gentleman. He will be sorely missed.

My deepest sympathy goes out to Millie, his dear wife of many years and their wonderful family, including children, grand children and great grandchildren. My dear friend Al Craig was truly a Gentleman in the real sense of the word.
We first met in Brockville where we worked at Automatic Electric. Our relationship deepened after our retirement.
In addition to the many phone calls, we often would meet half way in Kingston and had many lunches together during which (and for a long time after) we would discuss subjects of interest to us both, such as Politics, Religion, History, Science, Philosophy and his passion for Barber Shop singing, and mine for Quantum Mechanics.
We would always catch up on our respected family members. He loved all his family both individually and collectively. He was so very proud of them all and often shared their many achievements with me, and yes, at times, their pain too.
I will truly miss Al’s humour, his erudite nature and his wise counsel. It has been a privilege knowing such a wonderful, kind, thoughtful person.
Art Henry.
