October 29, 1959 — June 5, 2025

Streeter, North Dakota

Craig Jay Dewald, 65, of Streeter, North Dakota, died suddenly on Thursday, June 6, 2025, at the Wishek Community Hospital, Wishek, ND.

Craig was born October 29, 1959 at Jamestown, ND, to Bennie and Sally (Devereau) Dewald of Streeter. Craig graduated from Streeter High School in 1976 and went to work on the family farm with his father. In addition to grain farming, they also did gravel hauling. Craig also did dirt work, road building and snow removal in Fargo. He also served on the township board for many years and on the local elevator board.

Craig loved a number of things, but family was always his first love. He loved doting on Beckett and Bristol and especially taking them for rides on his side-by-side. Craig loved his rides on the side-by-side and his "bag of beer" he took with him checking crops. He usually returned with an empty bag and a big smile. 

Craig had one son, Justin. Craig met Mary Jane Henley 27 years ago and they were inseparable for those many years and was with him to the very end.

Surviving are one son, Justin (Jessica) Dewald and Craig’s life-long partner, Mary Jane Henley; his grandchildren, Beckett and Bristol Dewald; sister, Judy (Virgil) Horst; and brother; Tim Dewald.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Bennie and Sally, and sisters, Joleen and Sandy Dewald.
