Obituary

Our beloved Andrew Graham Craig sadly passed away at his home in Toronto, on September 11, 2021. He was born February 9, 1966 to parents Jill and William Craig in Salt Lake City, Utah USA. Losing his dad William (rip) at a very young age, he is survived by his loving mom Jill, sole brother Mathew, along with many endearing family and friends.

Andrew was well schooled and earned his degree at Sheffield University in the United Kingdom. He was known for his detailed and photographic memory, which lead him to a career path as an Academic Researcher. He was an avid reader and enjoyed sharing and befriending others through his diverse knowledge.

He was a strong supporter of South Africa’s anti-apartheid, and admired the activism of Anglican cleric Desmond TuTu and former president Nelson Mandela. He always demonstrated a compassionate heart towards the needs of others.  One of his favorite past times was watching football and was an enthusiastic follower of Southhampton’s Saints and Scunthorpe United.

Through a series of travels from mom Jill’s employment, Andrew and brother Mathew experienced residence in the USA, England and Canada.  He settled in Toronto in his adulthood life while his mom and brother lived in England. Though distance may have kept the family apart, his love for family remained strong.  He will be missed with cherished memories.  May he rest in peace.
