Craig Ellingsen was born October 25, 1966, and left us August 20, 2023.

Craig grew up on the family homestead farm along the Stillaguamish River near Stanwood. There he enjoyed the river and spending time hunting, fishing and kayaking. After leaving the farm he lived in Marysville and worked jobs as a welder and mechanic. He spent the last 25 years at Community Transit where he was Lead Vehicle Service Attendant for Vehicle Maintenance. He was health conscious and worked out at various gyms. He played semi-pro football, and he became a professional wrestler where he traveled immensely.

He was preceded in death of his parents Harold and Marilyn Ellingsen. He was the youngest of their six children. He will be genuinely missed by his siblings Linda Ellingsen Atkins (Herm), Lori Dunbar (Mike), Diane Eidsmoe (Tom), Jeff (Barb) Ellingsen and Becky Boyd (Pat). He was truly Uncle Craig to his many nephews and niece giving them love and joy. He was a strong, gentle, generous and a loving man of God.
