Craig Anthony Tuttle, age 39, passed away on Thursday, June 6, 2019, at Our Lady of the Lake Regional Medical Center in Baton Rouge, LA.
He was born on June 16, 1979 in Bedford, Texas, the son of Robert Tuttle and Eva Nino Pantle.
Craig graduated from Winfern High School in Houston, Texas and attended the University of Texas San Antonio.
Craig had a uniquely fun personality and seemed to get so much joy out of making people smile. He loved spending time with family, especially during his trips to Peru. He also enjoyed his time spent fishing and hunting whenever he could, but found added joy when he could do so in South Dakota. He loved to play golf, to watch live sports or on TV, and his favorite teams were the Dallas Cowboys, Houston Rockets and Dallas Mavericks.
Craig had a generous and caring heart that seemed to touch everyone he met. Those he loved and those who loved him have truly been blessed with a special gift during his time here on earth. While his loss to those he loved will be felt immensely, we have assurance that we too will soon be with him and the Lord in Heaven. What a glorious day that will be!
He is survived by his beloved wife, Penny Reeves; his father, Robert Tuttle; his mother, Eva Nino Pantle; his brother, Jeremy Pratt; his sisters, Heather Padraza, Sierra Tuttle and Emily Tuttle; step-father, William Pantle and step-mother, Lourdes Tuttle.
He was preceded in death by his paternal grandparents, Kenneth and Wanda Tuttle; maternal grandparents, Eva Palacios and Santiago Nino; and cousin, Cody Stenson.
A celebration of Craig’s life will be held at the Holiday Inn Express Community Room in Winner on Saturday, June 29, 2019, beginning at 10 a.m. where there will be a time of family sharing followed by a reception. Craig’s ashes will be scattered on the South Dakota prairies of the Brad and Shawn Tuttle ranch following the celebration of his life Saturday.
In lieu of flowers, memorials may be made to the Craig Tuttle Memorial Fund.
