May 27, 2010- We mourn today's passing of Riverlife founder and former chairman John G. Craig, Jr., and celebrate his dedication, fire and unwavering vision for a better Pittsburgh. John made the betterment of Pittsburgh's rivers one of the causes of his life, and his passion and hands-on commitment to Riverlife will be sorely missed.

Our sympathies to John's family, and to the thousands of people in this region he touched through his work at the Post-Gazette, Pittsburgh Regional Indicators Consortium, Pittsburgh Today, and Riverlife.
