Rev. Robert L. Craft

Bob was born on October 17, 1944 in Olive Hill, Kentucky. He was the son of Garnet Rose. Bob was a dedicated employee of Bunting Bearing for many years. He proudly served in the United States Navy. Bob loved the Lord, and was a Pastor at Crestline Church of God. He was not shy about sharing the love of Jesus with others as he loved talking about it and inviting people to church. He used his talents of playing the guitar and singing for the Lord as well. Bob would always let you know he was praying for you. Just like his Lord and Savior, Bob strived to always see the best in everyone and see past their flaws. He was a devoted husband, father, and much loved grandfather and great-grandfather. He enjoyed camping and fishing.
