Craig Lee Paterson
Lost to us unexpectedly on the 16 August 2006, through a motorcycle accident.
Craig was on his way home one night after a ride out with the boys and didnt make it home.
Craig was only 30 years young, a much loved son of Tilda, annoying big brother to Vicki and adored Uncle of Keiran. A very tall nephew to Great Aunty Mary and Great Aunty Margaret, and cousin to the girls, Jen, Karen and Chae. The list continues but is very long...he loved everyone and the feeling was mutual.
Based out in Crieff after a stint in Perth and Pitlochry Craig was training to be a Paramedic. He loved his job and thought very highly of his colleagues, who unfortunately had the task of having to attend to the scene of the accident. He started his medical training when he joined the army in 1998. He came home in 1999 and joined the crew at Perth.
Craig was a great man with a wicked sense of humour. Loved a round of golf, his motorbike and playing pranks on people. He always made you laugh and took care of the people close to him.
A very gentle giant with a beautiful smile.
Missed more than he will ever know.
R.I.P Craig

It's New Year
Hi Craig, well another year is slowly drawing to its end, and I miss you more than words can say. Look after everyone up there beside you, and don't forget us down here. Try to be beside your mum and vics and the wee man if you can at the start of the new year, know that I love you and always will, your light shines on in my heart. Your face is etched in my memories, the happy face, the grumpy face, your face in your quiet moments when you are deep in thought, all of them are there, as are you, always and forever craigiebaby.....love you
Hi Craig
Hi m8. Not looked in here for a while but of course that doesn't mean you have been far from my thoughts at any time. I will be heading up to sit for a bit with you on Sunday evening after I finish dayshift. Even after all this time, this still doesn't feel real.
Memories
Hi Craigiebaby, Was cleaning out the drawer in my bedroom yesterday and came across your Uncle Billy's death certificate and Alana's memorial programme, there was also some cards from friends and the cuttings from the newspapers about you. Brought back a lot of memories and feelings and I admit I was having a wee cry to myself and then that b****y snow patrol record came on the radio...spooky or what. Missing you like you wouldn't believe, take care, love you xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

2 years on
Hi Craigiebaby, Well it's hard to believe that 2 years have passed, in some ways it seems like only yesterday you were still with us but in others that seems a lifetime ago. Came out to see you today, it was so touching to see that your friends and colleagues remember you with love and affection. All of your flowers look so lovely and I hope that you enjoyed the impromptu conga (yeah we are all mad, did you check out the models posing). Think that piccie should be put on your site here, give everyone a laugh. It was a nice day and good to catch up with everyone face to face rather than just txts and phone calls, it is just the reason that we were together that is sad...wish you were still here....loved and remembered every day in every possible loving way
Craig PATERSON
Treasured memories of a dear nephew and cousin Craig who died 16th August, 2006.
'They say there is a reason, They say that time will heal,
But neither time or reason Will change the way we feel.
For no one knows the heartache That lies beneath our smiles, No one knows how many times We have broken down and cried.
We want to tell you something, So there won't be any doubt. Your so wonderful to think of, But so hard to do without.'
With love from Margaret and Jennifer X
