My love, Graham. There is not a day in these last ten years that you are not in my thoughts and my heart. I love you, and am sending extra love and hugs up this week. You taught me to always count my blessings. You kept a journal in which you wrote each day about things you were grateful for. I cherish that journal and your example will always inspire me. Xoxo sweets angel. Always.

We miss you and still find it hard to believe that you were taken away only four days after Susan moved there to live with you. Such a sad ending to a beautiful love story.

Not a week goes by that I don't think about Graham and Susan. I pray that Susan is doing well. I know Graham is flying high with the angels.

There is not a day that goes by that I don't think of you, and words are inadequate to describe how much I miss you. I will love you for eternity, sweet loving Graham.

I have only just learned of Grahams passing, I was very very taken back and sad to hear this.
I have known Graham for more than 30 years professionally, but it was prior to his marriage to the love of his life that Graham invited me over to Hamilton for a couple of beers and a chat. Graham was helping me with my personal issues by sharing his own journey, and how happy he was with his new life.
He was giving me hope.. What a great thing to do for someone in need.
