Craig Wasil

Craig Wasil, 50, of Colum­bus passed away Thurs­day (Oct. 25, 2012).

He was born June 27, 1962, in Akron. Craig was a 1981 grad­u­ate of Delaware Hayes High School where he was known for his ’73 Nova. He attended Kent State and grad­u­ated from Ohio Uni­ver­sity. Craig ded­i­cated his career to help peo­ple with men­tal dis­abil­i­ties as a social worker. Craig was a won­der­ful hus­band, son, brother, uncle and friend. He was gen­uinely inter­ested in peo­ple and will be remem­bered for his dif­fer­ent smiles. He was an out­doors­man who loved to fish, travel, golf, play with his dog and go boat­ing. He knew all kinds of music, metic­u­lously worked on and fixed things and was a grill mas­ter. He will be dearly missed by all who knew him.

Craig will be missed by his lov­ing wife of eight years, Malou; par­ents, Ray­mond and Pat Wasil; brother, Jeff (Linda) Wasil; sis­ter, Melissa Wasil; and nieces and nephews, whom Craig dearly loved and referred to him as “Fun Uncle Craig,” Carys, Collin and Briana.
