The VirtualBoxwell Team is sad to report the passing of Marty Hester. Marty was a member of the Craig staff  in 1990.  He worked in the now defunct position of “office boy.”  Essentially, he was a  gopher and aide to the Program and Camp Director.  Before CITs, this was the way a 14 year old worked on the staff. Unfortunately, we know virtually nothing about Marty’s life after camp. He passed in 2008 at approximately 32 years of age.  Services were held at the Willow Mountain Cemetery in Shelbyville. As we continue to update our rolls ahead of the 2026 reunion, we just discovered this.
