PERSONAL:

My wife, Gayla, and I live in Oakland Township and have three children. We are extremely proud of our kids and we're well pleased with the direction they're going and growing.

 Our oldest daughter, Alicia, graduated from Grand Valley State University. She's earned her degree in Advertising and Artistic Design. Alicia was recently married to Damon Young and we couldn't be happier for them. Our son, Curtis, is almost ready to graduate from University of Michigan and is deeply involved in the Music and Video Arts. Curtis was also recently married to Jordin Nelson. We are very grateful to have both Damon and Jordin in our family. Our youngest, Kendra, is a senior at Rochester Adams High School, where she's been involved in the Golf Team and Cheer. She is very excited about her next four years of college, as she is interested in pursuing the path of Advertising Design.

Spending time with our children and being involved with their lives brings us the most joy. My family and I are actively involved at Kensington Community Church and feel blessed to be a part of a community where God is clearly at work. Finally, after spending time with my wonderful Bride of 24 years, I look forward to playing as many rounds of golf as possible with my Buddies.

PROFESSIONAL:

I began my financial service career in 1986.  I am a graduate of Michigan State University and proud to be a Spartan.  I have earned the professional designations and credentials of a Chartered Financial Consultant (ChFC) and a Chartered Life Underwriter (CLU) from the American College, and have also completed the course work for a Wharton certificate in Retirement Planning in Pennsylvania*.  Although my education has been very important, the smartest thing I have done for my business was partner with David Bond. While most partnerships don't last, I have been blessed to work with my closest friend for over 20 years. Sallie, Clayton and Michelle have helped us to complete a servicing organization that I am extremely thankful for. Together, we have received many awards during our career at various levels, but building long lasting relationships with our clients is our most valued reward.

VALUE TO WIKLUND & BOND FINANCIAL SERVICES:

Helping clients achieve their long term financial goals gives Craig great satisfaction. He has always worked with our individual clients, helping them with their estate planning and retirement planning needs. However, it is his experience in the Corporate Market that is paramount to our organization.
