Most flights to Phoenix were sold out, so the earliest flight I could take was from SFO at 3:30 p.m. The flight was delayed 45 minutes, so I didn't arrive at mom's until 9 or so. Craig Jr., Calvin, and their wives Sara and Elizabeth were there. Mom was happy to see me but still in a state of shock and emotionally gone, understandably. I helped get her ready for bed and situation the sleeping arrangements in her house. Christy was arriving tomorrow and Cari and Cami were arriving on Monday. It'll be a tough couple of days.
The story of last night was that mom, Craig, and their friends Jamie and Gene went out to dinner at a local restaurant. Craig felt really good and ordered a big steak, along with a beef-eater martini. The night was festive and jovial. When they came home, Craig didn't feel well a few minutes after walking in the door, and suddenly collapsed on the floor in his computer room. Mom tried to get him to breath, then called 911. The medics arrived a few minutes later. Mom's friends came over about 15 minutes later, but by then Craig was already pronounced dead. It all happened very quickly.
