Jonathan Craig Alvord, born March 14, 1951 in San Bernardino,
California, passed away Saturday, 11/9/2019 in Lake Havasu City, AZ.,
after a 2 ½ year battle with cancer. Craig moved to LHC in 1965 and
other than living few years away in Prescott and Phoenix, he lived
these last years in Havasu.

He is survived by his wife, Debbie Alvord and his children from a
previous marriage, son, Tyler Alvord and daughter, Brooke (James)
McMillen and their three children. He is also survived by his mother,
Barbara Alvord, sister, Wendy (Steve) Klapp, brother, Warren (Joelle)
Alvord, brother, Breck (Dawn) Alvord, sister, Vicki Alvord-Dempsey and
numerous nieces, nephews, and grand nieces and nephews. He is also
predeceased by his father, Dale Alvord and sister, Deborah (Peter)
Strub.

Craig loved life and developed several skills and talents. One
highlight was, working together with his brother, Breck at their auto
and marine repair shop for several years. He also worked as a building
contractor, and his talent really showed when he built a full-size
tree house, in the Prescott mountains, large enough for a small family
to reside. He loved working with his hands throughout his life. He
enjoyed painting, wood carving, boating, and was a terrific water
skier.

He loved his friends and family deeply, as did we love him. He will be
greatly missed!

A celebration of life service will be held in his honor, TBA.
