Dear Uncle Craig,

Thank you so much for taking our children into your shop and making metal sculptures with them! We appreciate you showing them what you do as an artist. We are so grateful you took time out of your work days to help Lilette & Miles make "Wrenchmen"! You are the best!

That is SO neat! How fun! I want to do that! I remember him from your wedding and thinking he was really cool. Nice to know he is still really cool. :)

Tell me about it! Craig is so talented AND generous with his time. The kids thought it was amazing that Uncle Craig let them light the torch and handle tools. This is a special memory they will have forever.
