With Donna, his wife of twenty-eight years, Mayeux enjoys spending time with his two children and three grandchildren. An avid cook, angler, golfer and poker player, Mayeux finds time to volunteer in his community and church. Craig Mayeux is a native Louisianan, but currently lives in Missouri. His roots are still deep in the Louisiana bayou country and he travels back to his home state at every opportunity.view less
