William G. McGraw

Bill was the only father I knew for the last 18 year, I loved him and will miss him dearly. I never thought of him as my step father, but as a father. I will never forget walking down the aisle at my wedding on Bill's arm & him saying to me how great it was to have another daughter to walk down the aisle. Matthew will surely miss his Poppy, the crispy cheese wontons and ghost trackers that they used to share together. Bill was a wonderful grandfather to Meaghan, Nolan, Matthew and Theron....

Pop,
I am so thankful that your grandson, Theron, got to experience you as we will always remember you; Intelligent, funny, generous, having a larger than life personality, and your unending willingness to be silly for all of your grandkids!
Love,
Bonnie, Leslie & Theron

I first met Bill at the Convent Station (NJ) train station back in 1982. It was freezing and snowy and he made a funny comment about the LL Bean muc boots I was wearing. That was the beginning of a commuting friendship that would last many years. We became friends. Dave and I would go out to dinner with Bill, and we consulted him about his opinion on the choice for our first house (he wasn't crazy about it - and we didn't buy it). He was a jovial, fun, knowledgeable man who would later become...

Bill's laregr than life personality and generosity will be missed. We had a 29 year relationship as both a co-worker and friend. A great sports fan, we had endless conversations on many topics, but mostly the New York sports scene. As a co-worker he was a great mentor and a sounding board.

I was quite saddened to hear about Bill,and offer my most heart felt condolences to his family. Bill hired me in 1965 as his assistant at A&A and gave me my first real opportunity. After he left I stayed on for over 30 years. While our paths haven't crossed in many years i will always remember Bill as a terrific guy and friend.

Sympathy and condolences to the McGraw family. I am a former co-worker of Bill- I knew Bill to be a gentleman and a professional in his endeavors!

Sincerely!

Miss you Dad....who am I going to talk to about the Giants now?
