Hey my friends. Sorry it's been a while since the last update, but I've only felt strong enough to post today. The doctors have let me come home from the hospital so that I can be in the comfort of my own home whilst awaiting the ineveitable. All that can be done has been done so now it's just a matter of time. They haven't given me a time frame but knowing how tired I feel and how aggressive the cancer is I would guess it will be short - medium term. I just ask that when the time comes it's quick, I can't take anymore pain now.
My brilliant wife bought me something special to cheer me up so I promise I'll try and post a pic of it for one last Outrider effort.
God bless you all my friends. Your kindness towards Deanne and I will never be forgotten.
Craig.

Some people, when trying to avoid thinking about those things that cause them pain, turn to drink, or perhaps food, or drugs... I turn not to any of those... I collect action figures, turning my mind to the hunt, so that I might find a mote of peace... Over the years, I've found that alcoholism is much more socially acceptable by far.

Rest up. This place isn't the same without you Craig.

Brother Craig, words can't express my sympathy. I honestly don't know what to say. Everything sounds so trivial and crass when I type it. I just hope what time you have left is enjoyable and if not, then at least bearable. I will miss you, you have been a true friend and mentor. Even though we have never met face to face, I will always consider you a friend.

-Frank

Hope you can get rest and be as happy as you can be.

Even though your far away and our only contact is here..I feel like im losing a best friend. Your work will always inspire me to strive to do my best in what I create. Although, your work is far beyond what I can do right now.I will someday achieve Outrider greatness!!It has been a great pleasure meeting you and seeing the work you have put out.I pray that God gives you and your family strength thru this tough time..We will all meet again with our joes in tote someday and have one helluva battle!!Godspeed Craig. Sean . Bakersfield, Ca.
