Funeral services for Greg "Krafty" Kraft, age 35, of Osage, Iowa, will be held on Thursday, June 1, 2006, at the Champion-Bucheit Funeral Home in Osage, with Rev. R. Dawson Tornes officiating. Burial will be in the Allison Cemetery on Friday.

Greg died Friday, May 26, 2006, at his home in Osage.

Greg was born September 3, 1970, in Charles City, the son of Gary and Wanda (Thompson) Kraft of Rockford. He attended school in Nashua and Nora Springs-Rock Falls. Greg was a very devoted father to his two girls and lived for his daughters, family, and friends. Learning his trade at his father's knee, Greg was a self taught mechanic that could fix or build anything. Everyone benefited from his knowledge when they visited "Krafty" at Bree's Tire Service where he was employed. He had a passion for anything with a motor and wheels, and started driving cars before he could barely see over the steering wheel. He was very proud of his "big boy toys", and in conversation his favorite saying was "Purrfect."

Greg will always be remembered for his incredibly quick wit and sense of humor, and his loving soul. Even though he took a piece of those who knew him when he left us, we want Greg to know that we will always think of him when we see a Pro-Street S-10 Chevy flying down the highway.

He is preceded in death by his maternal and paternal grandparents and his step-grandfather.

Greg is survived by his daughters, Britny and Billi Jo Kraft of Osage; by his parents, Gary and Wanda Kraft of Rockford; by one sister Pam Kraft of Osage; by one brother Brian (Tabitha) Kraft of Colwell; and numerous other loving family members.

Arrangements were made by Champion-Bucheit Funeral Home, Osage (641)732-3706.
