This led him first to Alcoholics Anonymous, then back to college where he earned a masters in social work, specializing in addiction. Craig used his own experiences, his own battles with substance abuse, and his education, as a means of helping others. Craig's struggles made him a very humble and grateful man. In later years his son Robert became his main focus and joy. He often said that being a father was a gift he never thought he would have.
