Craig Poehner Obituary

Craig Michael Poehner of Wilmington, Delaware passed away peacefully on September 3rd surrounded by his loved ones.

Born in Philadelphia Pennsylvania, he was a proud graduate of Upper Darby High School. He spent his career managing supermarkets throughout the Greater Philadelphia area, where he was known for his strong work ethic, dedication, and ability to connect with the people around him.

Outside of work, he enjoyed the simple things that made life special- especially spending time with his friends, his boxer pups, sharing laughs, and watching his beloved Philadelphia Phillies, Flyers, and Kansas City Chiefs. Whether gathered around a television for a big game or simply enjoying time with those he cared about, he cherished the friendships and memories made along the way.

He will be deeply missed by his loving wife, Denise; his daughter, Erin; his mother, Carolyn; his brother, Fred (Heather); his sister, Dana; and a host of beloved nieces and nephews who will carry his memory with them.

He was predeceased by his father, Fred Sr., and his brother Brian.

He leaves behind a lifetime of memories, laughter, friendships, and love that will remain in the hearts of all who knew him. His friends and family will remember him not only for the life he lived, but for the moments shared, the stories told, and the love he gave so freely.

He will be forever loved, forever missed, and never forgotten.

Services will be private.
