He graduated from Tennessee Temple University with a BS in Christian Education. He later received his MS in Christian Education from Baptist Christian University. Craig was a member of Metro Baptist Church since 1982 where he held many positions and currently was serving as the Minister of Music.

Craig was a man of faith. Everyone that had the privilege of knowing Craig knew that faithful was who he was, not just something he did. He was faithful to his ministry, his friends, his children, his wife, and mostly to His Savior, Jesus Christ.

Craig loved being with his family, they were everything to him. He loved being challenged & learning new hobbies to enjoy. Some of his favorites were fishing & golfing with his boy, gardening with his babe, riding motorcycles with his friends, tickling his grandkids, and going on beach & mountain vacations with his family.

Craig was a gifted musician who led people in worship. His greatest passion was leading others to Jesus. Countless lives are changed because of his boldness and zeal in sharing his faith with everyone he met.

He is preceded in death by his infant brother, Ray Geesaman and sister-in-law, Brenda Geesaman.
