My heart goes out to Graham's mom and his kids. It was an honor to be Graham's friend for the second half of his life. I was so fortunate to be his best friend. We went through thick and thin together. Great days of skiing from morning til sundown. He loved his family so much. I will always miss my friend.

I am just now hearing this news and am so saddened. We loved being neighbors with Graham and Laura as they started their family, and continued that friendship after they moved. Always happy to take care of our dog, always happy to hear about our family.
Sending our thoughts to the kids, we have watched Hunter and Graham grow up into such lovely people and am just heartbroken for them all!
Sending you our thoughts and prayers and Graham will be missed!!!

Oh my, I just added Graham as a friend on FB about 2-3 months ago. I was his school counselor at Stripling and had several one-on-ones with him. I really enjoyed knowing him as a teen, and was looking forward to re-meeting him as an adult! I don't know if he was ill, but I am so sorry that I won't get the chance to know him again. I never knew we had an "Aledo" connection until I saw him posting on this site! I always thought of him as west FW! Blessings to the family!

Graham was a warm and gracious neighbor who was always there to cheerfully lend a helping hand. It didn't matter if it was helping to install car stereo speakers or cutting down a tree, Graham was there to help. His bright smile and friendly wave will be missed. May the family find peace during this difficult time and know that you are in our thoughts and prayers.

We send our deepest heart felt sympathy to all Graham's family and friends. He had a smile on his face when I first met his as a child and the last time I saw him only a few weeks ago.
He was so very proud of his children. We are so sorry for your loss.

I know from my close relationship with Sierra that Graham was an amazing father to his children, and a wonderful addition to this world. I take comfort in knowing all the great memories that are left behind. Heaven has another angel looking down on us. Only the good die young!

Mr. Graham, that's what we've called him since the day we became neighbors, was a great neighbor and friend. Graham was always willing to lend a helping hand (or tool) and loved chatting with the neighbors while watching the kids play outside. Who else but Graham puts a gigantic 1 story water slide in the front yard for all the kids to enjoy. So many great memories Graham helped to create with all our kids.
Our love and prayers go out to Hunter, Graham-e, Ms. Laura and his family.

Hunter, Graham and Sierra--I'm so sorry about your loss. I remember the wonderful shrimp boils your father organized whenever we came to Texas. And, all the fun in the pool, and a time or two when he rocked the bouncehouse. He was always laughing. He loved you guys so much. He was always talking about you. I am so sorry that I will miss his funeral on Sunday. Russ, JP and Anna will be down to give you all a hug. Katie and I will come in a month or so to give you another one.

Prayers for your family. I remember what a GREAT person that Graham was in school. He never had a cross word for any one. I wish I had stayed in closer contact with him after school. I guess we think that every one will be here forever. Graham is where he has always deserved to be now. In Heaven with the most loving God. I still pray for peace for his family.
