Craig Michael Dyrdahl

On Saturday July 31st Craig Michael Dyrdahl returned to his rightful home in heaven. After a long battle with heart disease he went to join our Lord and Savior! Craig was born February 12, 1953 in Gardena California to Ervin & Ardette Dyrdahl. He was the youngest boy of 5 children. At the age of 18, he joined the Navy, went over seas and returned to marry his one true love. Craig and Becky were married October 9, 1974 and had 4 loving, exceptional children. Connie, Tracie, Sarah & Chase. They built the majority of their life in Yorba Linda “Lot 5” where they hosted many weddings & family gatherings in their gorgeous, tranquil, welcoming backyard. The girls went on to all marry and Craig formed a love and bond with each of his son in laws Rigo, David and Mike. The Dyrdahl tribe continued to grow and he was blessed with 13 grandchildren and 1 great grandson. Morgan, Kyle, Sierra, Blake, Austin, Noah, Hayden, Cole, Payton, Savannah, Mia, Jackson, Gavin & Dawson. Craig loved Christmas with his family and always went above and beyond to make sure it was nothing less than a Hallmark movie. He loved playing his guitar for all the kids, fishing with his son in laws and grandsons, sitting in his back yard, visiting with his family and enjoying all of Gods beautiful creations. Craig loved his wife Becky more than anything on earth and his biggest fear was being without her. In the end he died exactly how he wanted, in the arms of his “little woman” His life and legacy will forever live on in the stories and memories so many have of him. His service will be on August 31st at Riverside National Cemetery located at 22495 Van Buren Boulevard Riverside Ca 92518 at 11:30 am. He is survived by his sister Kathy Puccio, his daughters Connie, Tracie & Sarah and the love of his life, his beautiful wife Becky. Until we meet again our lives are forever changed and a part of us is gone without you. We love you so much!
