Craig William Amann

Craig William Amann, 65, of Hawk Point, Missouri passed away unexpectedly on Sunday, September 13, 2015 at his residence and was reunited with his son, Heath Earl Amann. He was born on July 16, 1950 in St. Louis, Missouri, a son of the late Earl and Jeanne (Oppeau) Amann.

He was a member of the Sheet Metal Workers' Local 36 and retired from Frank Fischer, Inc. in 2008. In his earlier years Craig liked spending time on the water, boating. Craig enjoyed fishing, deer hunting, 4-wheelin’ and shooting trap with his family. He had a special place in his heart for his dogs, especially Arnold and his chickens. Craig always loved watching his TV game shows, sitting around the table with his family and friends playing poker and pinochle, especially with Gene Smith and sharing his hunting and fishing stories. He was never at an idle, either mowing the grass, tending his tomato plants, trying for the first ripe or biggest tomato of the year or he was spending time with his family.
