I worked with Fred for many years at NAFB. He was a great person to know.
I was a patron of Times Square Watch Repair, and always enjoyed interacting with Mr. Craley. He was the 'real thing'. I have missed Times Square these last few years, and the expertise and wisdom that went along with a visit to the store. He truly left a positive mark on the world. I am so sorry to hear of his passing, and send sincere condolences to his family.
I love you, Dad. While I know you are in God's hands, I still miss having you here with us.
Dear Cathy and Family

I am so sorry we were not able to be with you during this time. I wish I could hug each one of you. Please love and support each other.
I have so many memories of Grandpa..his infectious laugh and ornery ways. With a lifetime of memories, it's hard to focus on one. Please know we are thinking of you. I love each of you!

We have a lifetime of friendship with Fred and Cathy. Our children played with your children. We share fond memories that will never be forgotten, It has always been a pleasure to sit and talk for hours "solving the World's problems" just spending time together. Fred will always have a special place in our hearts. When we see you Cathy thoughts of Fred will come to mind because the two of you were always together. No we will never forget who you are Fred, and our love for your family will always continue. Boyd and Donna Richards
My prayers and thoughts to the loved ones of Earl "Fred" Craley Sr I worked with Fred at NAFB and had many enjoyable conversations with him over the years we worked together. I always connected to Fred as my family was a Studebaker family. I had as my means of transportation a 1949 Studebaker Coupe with the wrap around read window and also we had a Studebaker pickup. We loved them and they stayed together with young drivers mishandling. Fred was fun to work with and he had a great sense of our missions at NAFB. Praying God wraps his arms around you in the loss of your loved one. You will always have Fred in your memories near your heart.
You are greatly missed already. Love you.
Deepest sympathy Earl! May God comfort you and your family during this time of sorrow!.
