Kairlee Graham Obituary
"God finally told me my journey is through. I was born on April 10, 1959 to loving parents, Marion "N" and Joan (Hardisty) Davidson. I was the oldest of eight children. I graduated from Westwood High in Mesa, Arizona. From there I went to Snow College in Ephraim, Utah where I met the love of my life, Michael A. Graham. We were sealed in the Manti Temple on September 20, 1978. I was blessed with nine wonderful children. My family was such strength to me after I was diagnosed with brain cancer twelve years ago. I passed away on July 8, with my sweetheart by my side.
I was preceded in death by my father, Marion. I am survived by my mother, Joan, and my siblings: DeLane, Jennifer, Aaron, Jeanette, Marni, Nathan, and Amy. By my husband, Michael and my children: Joseph, David, Marcella, Amanda, Cassandra, Adam, Emillia, Thomas, and Victoria. Also by my seventeen beautiful grandchildren.
Let it be said that I loved life and my family passionately. Thank you to all my friends who have taken such good care of me."
Funeral services will be held on Thursday, July 12, 2012 at 11 am in the Copperview 2nd Ward, 12224 So. 2700 W. where friends may call Wednesday evening from 6-8 pm and Thursday 1 hour prior to services. Interment in the Riverton Cemetery. www.broomheadfuneralhome.com

Dear Mike and Kids (they will always be kids to us no matter how old they get!),
I ran into someone from our old neighborhood tonight who told me of Kairlee's passing. I am so SO sorry that I didn't know before today. I would have loved to have come to the funeral to see you all and celebrate Kairlee's life. I really loved Kairlee and very much enjoyed the time I spent with her before we moved away. She was such a fighter to defy even brain cancer to see those grandbabies. It's amazing that there are so many grandbabies now! Please know that Vic and I are thinking about you all!

We are thankful her suffering is done and that she is finally at peace. She left a legacy for all who came to love and know her. She lived a life worth celebrating! Mike has been an example of one of the most devoted, kind and loving husbands ever!

My wife & I have good memories of meeting our cousin and visiting her in her home. She has a great spirit and knowledge of genealogy and her family ancesters. She will surely strike up many conversations on the other side.

Kairlee is so genuine and caring. She lives the "Golden Rule". She is kind. Her countenance is guiltless. I am lucky our paths crossed.

Dear Graham Family,
Karilee was such a great friend, she always made sure people knew that she cared about them by calling them on their birthdays. And she wrote wonderful plays for our stake skits. She was also a great mentor over the years.
Karilee you will be dearly missed.

Dear Mike and family
Karilee loved all of you so very very much. More than once I heard her say "I need to hold my grandbabies" long before any of her kids were even married.
As you go through your life(s) you are going to find things or remember things that Karilee did or had or said. Don't be sad as you find these things-think of them as "presents" she left for you
She was a very special lady. I am glad that I could call her my friend.
