Craig Walker Gale
It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Craig Walker Gale, also affectionately known to his friends as “Kegger”, a compassionate soul who left us on August 27, 2025. Born on November 14, 1984, in Roosevelt, UT, Craig was a beacon of creativity and generosity. He carried an infectious zest for life that radiated to all who had the pleasure of knowing him. Craig, whose heart was as vast as the landscapes he loved, had an innate ability to make everyone around him feel at ease.
Craig’s creativity was not confined to his role as a cook in the restaurant industry; it was a part of his essence that permeated all aspects of his life. He was a connoisseur of experiences, often found in the wilderness, camping, golfing, or simply appreciating the majesty of nature. Craig’s adoration for the outdoors was second only to his love for his friends and family. He was a supportive pillar in the lives of many, a generous spirit who always put the welfare of his parents at the forefront.
As a sportsman and “Magic the Gathering” player, Craig was a free spirit who added a unique flavor to every gathering. His love for travel and rally man, showcased his adventurous side, while his knack for ceramics reflected his meticulous attention to detail. A regular visitor to Crystal Hot Springs, Craig had a deep connection with the natural world, often seeking solace and inspiration in its embrace.
