Floyd “Woody” Craig

April 16, 1937 - October 21, 2020

Woody loved music so much he was the lead singer and guitar player in a country western band, The Country Classics. An active and handy man, Woody was always making things or doing home maintenance and improvements. He was an accomplished wood worker and carpenter. Woody frequently spent time in his wood shop making various furniture pieces, and had even built his own house in Pennsylvania. An avid gardener, he often spent time with his gardening and landscaping projects.

Woody is survived by his loving wife of 65 years, Lois Ann Craig; daughter, Lori Ann Craig; grandson, Steve Zakreski; four great-grandchildren: Ava, Aubrey, Summer and Savannah, and sister, Patricia Williams. In addition to his parents, Woody was preceded in death by his two daughters: Sandra Catherine “Cathy” Stewart and Anita Sue Craig; and two grandsons: Christopher Murrin and Justin Lee Stewart.

Because of the limitations created by the COVID pandemic, services for Woody will be held next year on his birthday, April 16, 2021.

So sorry to hear of his passing. He was a wonderful person, I was friends with his daughter Cathy since 1994. Miss Cathy so much, but I know she is in a better place and they are together maybe playing some country music.

So sorry to hear about Woody. I was the keyboard player for the Country Classics for 8 great years and I still think about those years often. They were like a second family to me. Rest In Peace buddy and hopefully we will be able to play again one day. Gods peace to Lois and all his family.

Woody took me under his wings when I was just 14 as the drummer in The County Classics. Spent many a Saturday night riding to gigs, that were mostly VFWs, Moose Lodges or small bars, with my drums in the back of the old Ford station wagon he owned. Many great memories. Was so glad to reconnect with him and the family last year.
He will be missed.
My deepest condolences to Lois, Lori and his family.

Please accept our deepest condolences for your family's loss.
