We are all better people having been loved by him.Graham's passions were faith, family, singing, skiing, hunting, hiking and boating. He enjoyed watching his grandchildren's sports and other activities. He was also a "Gran-Gram" to many other kids. The "Professional Sports Watcher" standing at the fence with his boys.Graham loved to sing and did so at each of his daughter's weddings.
