Craig John Sanders
21 April 1961 – 17 August 2025
SANDERS, Craig John. Suddenly but peacefully on Sunday, 17th August 2025.
Craig was truly the most remarkable man I have ever encountered. His gentle nature, love for animals, and children endeared him to everyone. He always had a joke or a few stories to share with anyone willing to listen. Though he may no longer be with us, Craig has left a lasting impact on myself (Sandy), Robyn, Lily, Shay, Tegz, Tam, and all the grandchildren. He shared a special bond with each of us.
We will forever cherish the memories of our dear Craig.
A private Memorial Service will be held at a later date. Messages to "Sanders Family" PO Box 632, Invercargill, or you can leave your tribute at mwfunerals.co.nz/s/craig

Tributes
With his gentle nature Craig was never made to be a man of the bush.. When Tony took him on a hunting trip once his favourite funny story was when Craig slept up a tree to get away from a possum. So many precious memories; we’ll hold him in our hearts until we can hold him again. Suzi Tony Troy and Tristan
You were a great guy cabbage and a good dart player R.I.P
R I P , Craig you left us lots of precious memories , Fly Free Buddy.
You will always be Poppa Craig in Myself, Mav, EJ, Dante and Marty's eyes. The love you brought into our life is like no other. The way you could make Mav laugh (or not so much) with a Rahda Rahda will never be forgotten. Hanging with Marty or giving Dante a lift home from air cadets will never be forgotten. The love I feel in my heart and the heartbreak I am feeling will never be forgotten. I love you and hope you are happy wherever you may be. I will see you on the other side. Shay
