Bertha Estelle Nelon Craig, 61, of Asheville, died Sunday, May 5, 2002, at St. Joseph Hospital.
Mrs. Craig was a daughter of the late Horace and Julia Hall Nelon.
She is survived by her husband, Robert Craig; one
daughter, Doris Alberts and her husband Dale; two sons, Dennis Craig and Gary Craig; three grandchildren, Eddie, Meagan and Elijah; one brother, Clifford Nelon of Reno, NV; and extended family.
The funeral service will be at 6:00 pm Wednesday in the Patton Avenue chapel of Groce Funeral Home with the Revs. Robert Earwood and Jeff Brooks officiating.
As one of Bertha's children, I speak honestly when I say that Bertha loved everyone. She simply did not know how to love one person less than another. Life may have had it's shares of bumps along the way but she mentioned many times how much she loved EVERYONE she knew. If she taught me one thing growing up, it was that family is not made by blood, it is made by love.
