While family and friends are invited to attend Craig’s graveside service, Alspach-Gearhart Funeral Home & Crematory continues to be cautious and concerned for those who are most at risk: the elderly and those with serious health issues. We strongly urge those who are most vulnerable and their caregivers to stay at home.  Anyone not feeling well, or who fear that their own health or that of their family may be compromised, is encouraged to refrain from attending services. Attendees are asked to observe social distancing and refrain from hugging, kissing, shaking hands and close contact.

Preferred memorials: Trinity Evangelical Lutheran Church or to Van Wert Manor Activities Fund.
