Retro Red Memorial Service Details: Aug 27, 6:30 pm

[Catdad]

My introduction to Craig was on May 6th of this year when Spartan invited this southeast valley (he's northwest valley Phoenix) new kiltie to join them at Lis Doon Varna for a kilt night. My wife and I decided it sounded like a good idea and joined the group.

I introduced my wife and myself to Craig. I introduced myself as Steve and he gave me a strange look. I then explained that I go by "Catdad" on Xmarks and he laughed heartily and responded "I thought you looked familiar. I recognized you from your avatar!"

We only met Red twice, but both times he was extremly friendly and made us feel welcome and that we have been a part of the group of the NW rabble forever. He always made my day whether it was reading some of his posts or just the simple PMs we exchanged a couple of times.

As Frank ended his reflections, I too echo that sentiment, I treasure knowing him. I'm only sorry that it was for so short a period of time.

Thanks Frank. I'll be there next Thursday. I have too many memories to attempt to follow suit and detail them out here at the moment. Thank you for taking point on all this and being the contact with Diane. You've been very helpful for the last few weeks, and I am extremely appreciative, as I know Craig was too.
