Zachary Tyler Craig

September 25, 1991 – August 16, 2026

Zachary Tyler Craig, of Ocala, Florida, passed away on August 16, 2026, at the age of 34. Born in Ocala on September 25, 1991, Zachary was a loving husband, devoted father, beloved son, brother, uncle, grandson, and friend to many.

Zachary graduated from the Florida Youth Challenge Academy in 2008. Throughout his life, he was known for his outgoing personality, friendly spirit, quick sense of humor, kindness, and active nature. Above all, Zachary loved Jesus, and his faith was an important part of who he was.

Zachary had a passion for adventure and staying active. He enjoyed skateboarding, skiing, gymnastics, and music. He was especially well known for his back flips, which he was famous for doing almost anywhere. His fun-loving personality and ability to bring laughter and energy wherever he went will be deeply missed by all who knew him.

Professionally, Zachary worked as a cabinet maker and salesperson. He brought his creativity, determination, and personable nature to his work and to the many people he encountered throughout his career.

Zachary leaves behind his beloved wife, Veronica Craig, and their son, Harrison Craig. He is also survived by his mother, Rebecca Miller; father, Heath Craig; stepfather, Timothy Miller; sisters, Kirston Lowther and Brianne Miller, and Brianne's husband, Ryan Wilson; nephews, Milo Holden and Kole Holden; grandmother, Judith Lowther; as well as many aunts, uncles, cousins, and extended family members who loved him dearly.

He was preceded in death by his grandmother, Betty Craig, and grandfather, Charles Craig.

Zachary's laughter, kindness, adventurous spirit, love for his family, and unwavering love for Jesus will remain in the hearts of those who knew and loved him. His memory will live on through his wife, son, family, and friends, and through the countless lives he touched along the way.

A memorial service celebrating Zachary's life will be held at Church At The Springs on Sunday, August 30, at 4:00 p.m. Family and friends are invited to come together to honor his life, share memories, and celebrate the person he was and the love he gave so freely.
