Dora Graham Obituary


Dora Adena Graham passed away on January 25, 2019, at the age of 90, and moved to her heavenly home, celebrating with her husband, Alvin, and many friends and relatives in the Lord's presence. Born in Marshall, Arkansas, on March 10, 1928, Dora was the last surviving member of 9 brothers and sisters.

Dora was married to her loving husband, Alvin, for 71 years who preceded her in death on May 30, 2018. Moving to California in 1947, Dora and Alvin settled in Sutter and raised their family.

Dora is survived by two sons, Michael Graham (Loretta) of Roseville; and Larry Graham (Wendy) of Marysville. She is also survived by three grandchildren, Kristen Graham of Roseville; Ryan Graham (Gina) of Yuba City; and Kale Graham (Paula) of Marysville. Additionally, Dora leaves behind three great-grandchildren, Elijah, Adiena, and Mara.

Dora is especially remembered for her strong and loving care for her family, always shown with hugs and kisses. She loved her heavenly Father dearly and could often be heard singing His praises around the house while working. Dora was a member of Calvary Temple in Yuba City and Christian Life Assembly in Gridley. She is sorrowfully and greatly missed.

Pastor Abe Daniel, of Trinity Life Center in Sacramento will officiate graveside services held by Ullrey Memorial Chapel at Sutter Cemetery on Thursday, January 31st, 2019, at 9:00 A.M.
