The Protofab family lost a great man on Friday, November 4. Darrin Kranig was loved by everyone here at Protofab and he brought so much joy and laughter to our lives. He was the kindest person, always willing to help out and ALWAYS ready to make you laugh with an inappropriate joke or with one of his goofy pun jokes. Among so many other things about this wonderful man, we will always remember his unique laugh and how it floated across the shop. It was so infectious, whenever you heard it, it made you stop what you were doing and laugh right along.

Our hearts go out to the Kranig family. He will be missed greatly and never forgotten.
