James Graham Obituary

Published by Heritage Funeral Chapel - Peoria on Nov. 14, 2014.

James Edward Graham of Glendale, Arizona began a new journey November 14, 2014. His life journey began February 9, 1950 in South Bend, Indiana. Jim was a rock and roll sort of man who had a passion for RC planes and CB/Ham radios. During his time in the Air Froce, Jim honorably served a tour in Vietnam. In his later years, Jim was an avid television watcher; sports (boxing, football and golf), westerns and COPS always caught his attention. Jim touched the lives of many throughout his 64 years. His physical presence will be greatly missed, but his spirit will live on through all that knew and loved him. Jim is survived by his wife of 34 years, Cindy Graham; one son James Graham, Jr; two daughters, Nova Brown and Michelle Beecher and six grandchildren; Caleb, Jacob, Sienna, Saige, Hunter and Haley. Services will be held Saturday, November 29th at 2:30 p.m. at Heritage Funeral Chapel, 6830 W. Thunderbird Road, Peoria, Arizona. In lieu of flowers, contributions to the ALS Association www.alsa.org are appreciated.
