Craig Howard Stamper, 64, of Alexander, Arkansas, passed on October 26, 2026.

Born July 29, 1962, in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, Craig was the son of William Stamper Sr. and Virginia (Ames) Stamper. Throughout his life, Craig possessed a remarkable ability to connect with others, offering kindness, compassion, and divine guidance without limitation to those who crossed his path.

Craig dedicated much of his life to helping others better understand themselves, their purpose, and the world around them. A spiritual life coach, psychic medium, and teacher, he spent more than 45 years providing guidance and encouragement to individuals seeking clarity in their lives. Through his work, Craig helped people navigate relationships, personal challenges, questions of purpose, and the loss of loved ones. His professional philosophy was rooted in the belief that people often know more than they realize; sometimes, they simply need someone to help them recognize it and trust themselves.

For Craig, his work was about much more than offering answers. It was about listening, understanding, and making people feel heard. Whether through a personal conversation, a spiritual reading, or a moment of encouragement, he sought to help others find peace, confidence, and direction. His work reached far beyond central Arkansas, touching the lives of people from many different places and walks of life.

Those who knew Craig will remember him as a kindhearted soul who always put others before himself. He had a remarkable sixth sense and an intuition that seemed to reach beyond the ordinary. He possessed a special way of understanding people and recognizing things that others might overlook.

Nowhere was this more evident than in his home, where Craig and Jackson navigated daily life together. For years, Craig devoted his days to being a steady and guiding presence in Jackson's life, providing a home, stability, encouragement, and someone he could always count on. He was there for the everyday routines, the challenges and triumphs of growing up, and the milestones along the way. Craig’s legacy lives on in their countless conversations, the steady and unconditional love he gave, and all the ordinary days and special moments they shared in between.

Craig is survived by Jackson Wolff, who was like a son to him and Wincie Gladish, who was like a mother to him.

Craig is survived by his siblings, Sheila Savage, William Stamper Jr., Susan Hug, and Robert Stamper; along with extended family members, dear friends, and the many individuals whose lives were enriched by his guidance and friendship.

He was preceded in death by his parents, William Stamper Sr. and Virginia (Ames) Stamper, and his sister, Sheba Davenport.

Though Craig’s earthly journey has come to an end, the wisdom he shared, the connections he made, and the kindness he extended to others will continue to live on in the lives he touched. His presence will be deeply missed, but his influence will not be forgotten.
