FORT MILLS, SC — Jim Craft (82) of Fort Mill, South Carolina, passed away on October 13, 2024.
After a long-fought battle with cancer, he turned his pain over to the Lord and is now resting peacefully. His wife, daughter, and grandchildren were able to be with him just before he passed.
Born May 22, 1942, in Farmville, VA, he was the son of the late Curtis and Frances Craft. He served as an Army Reservist and was an executive at Crawford Manufacturing in Richmond, VA. When their first grandchild was born, Jim and Linda relocated to Fort Mill, SC to be closer to their daughter and grandson.
Jim is survived by his wife Linda Pinner Craft, daughter Amy Hodgin, son-in-law Todd Hodgin, grandchildren Alec and Brooke Hodgin, and his grand-dog Sadie. His great loves were his family, the Washington Commanders (Redskins), and fishing.
A service to celebrate Jim’s life will be held on Saturday, October 26, 2024, at 11:00 AM at Twiford Colony Chapel, 500 Budleigh St, Manteo, NC 27954.
