Craig Lien

Craig D. Lien, 60 of Cedar Rapids, passed away, Wednesday, December 20, 2017. A Family Service will be held this summer in Wisconsin. 

Craig is survived by his son Justin and daughter Kasi Cary of Arizona; mother Delores of Wisconsin; brother Gene and his wife Deb; and nieces, great nieces, and nephews of Marion. 

He was preceded in death by his father, Merton “Mert” Lien and many treasured relatives. 

Craig was born in Grantsburg, Wisconsin. He graduated from Kennedy High School in 1975. He and his family moved to Arizona, where he continued to work in construction and carpentry. Craig was a “Traumatic Brain Injury Survivor” of nearly twenty years from injuries he received in a motorcycle accident in January of 1998. A truly life changing event. 

We must thank his special longtime friends for their companionship and support, Gail Jensen of Arizona, Mike Morgan and Family of Lisbon, and Rick Hanna and Family of West Branch.
