What can I say that can truly do justice to my wonderful friend Micky. We shared some great times as Deuchars lads , playng football , going to Benidorm and Belgium. Micky you are a special person with a great heart and soul, you touched so many peoples lives and made their lives that bit more special.
I will miss you terribly as I've no doubt others will also because you are such a warm hearted character. My thoughts and prayers are with all the Craig family at this sad and difficult time .
Love you Micky , always have , God bless and Rest in Peace my dear friend.
