It is with profound sorrow that we announce the tragic deaths of our son, Craig Eady, 44; our daughter-in-law, Danna Eady (Farrar), 41; and our beloved grandsons, Remus, 13, and Pavel, 10, following a plane crash in Fresno, Calif., on Sept. 5, 2026.
Born and raised in Niagara-on-the-Lake, Craig attended Parliament Oak School and Niagara District Secondary School before later settling in California with his family. He is lovingly remembered by his parents, Rick and Sylvia Eady; his siblings Amanda (Nikkel), Kyle and Lindsay; their families; and many extended family members and friends.
Craig and Danna leave behind their two surviving children, Felicity, 18, and Lucien, 17, who are now facing the unimaginable loss of their parents and brothers while trying to rebuild their lives and plan for their futures.
A donation page has been established to help provide Felicity and Lucien with much-needed financial stability and support in the months and years ahead. Donations of any amount would be deeply appreciated and can be made through SupportNow — The Eady Family.
We are profoundly grateful for the love, kindness and support that has been shown to our family during this devastating time.
Craig, Danna, Remus and Pavel will be deeply loved, missed and remembered always.
