Craig Davis is a beloved member of our community and has suffered a serious accident. On Tuesday, June 10th, Craig fell down a flight of stairs and was life-flighted to Grant Hospital, where he was diagnosed with a cervical fracture. He remains hospitalized and will undergo extensive medical treatments and rehabilitation, with significant time away from work. The challenges ahead are great, and so are the financial burdens. To help ease some of that burden, we are organizing a fundraiser on Sunday, July 13, 2025, from 1–5 PM at Moose Lodge #499 in Newark, OH, with all proceeds going directly toward Craig’s medical and recovery expenses.
Craig is more than just a local small business owner—he is the heart of this community. As the owner of Buckeye Home Lending, Craig has helped many of us achieve the dream of homeownership. But his service extends far beyond business:
He is a devoted community servant, known for preparing countless fish fries, spaghetti dinners, and gourmet meals to support others.
He is an active member of St. Francis de Sales Church, where he serves as a Eucharistic Minister and participates regularly in Adoration.
He is a member of the Knights of Columbus, a board member of the Vanguard Men’s Group, and proudly serves on the Licking County Board of Realtors and he is an active member of the Moose Lodge #499.
Most importantly, Craig is a man of deep faith, compassion, and generosity—always willing to lend a hand, share his time, or give his last dollar to someone in need. Craig has spent his life giving to others. Now it’s our turn to give back.
The fundraising event will include a live and silent auction, food, 50/50 raffle, and live music by Danny Emerich
