Brian Graham Obituary
One final lap...
Brian, of Charlotte, came into this world on a cold winter's day in Windsor, Ontario, on December 17, 1957, and left this world on January 7, 2012. His father, Donald Graham, preceded him in death in 1966. The family moved to Traverse City, MI, where Brian began his love for anything with a motor. Every weekend was spent at the motocross track and that later expanded when he moved to Charlotte where he motocrossed, raced Legends cars, and loved boating. Brian owned Weathervane Construction in Charlotte.
He will be terribly missed by his mother, brother, sister and son.
Cremation has taken place and no funeral service is planned.

Brian and I raced motocross together for 2 summers. He was sponsored by the Suzuki shop, and we traveled all over Michigan many weeks. I stayed at his house the night before, then off to the track we drove in his van. What a guy. We also ride all over the Old Mission Peninsula´s cherry orchards. I miss him.
