Kraig loved spending time with his children and was very proud of their accomplishments. He was an avid cyclist and rode Ride the Rockies numerous times with his three boys. He loved woodworking and made beautiful, cherished heirlooms for his wife and daughter. He became an intense and loyal Broncos fan, and his friends and family have many fun memories of time spent with him at or watching games.

Kraig was especially passionate about his love for his Lord and Savior. He studied God's Word and delighted in sharing what he learned with others. He faithfully supported many missionaries and was passionate about spreading the good news of salvation through Jesus's gift of eternal life.
