So sad to hear of Graham's passing. We grew up with Graham in Seddon back in the 1960's, I was in the same class until we went to Marlborough Boys College, our paths have crossed many times since then.
Graham was a real genuine Good Bugger, hard to find in this day and age.
RIP Graham, our thoughts and love are with you and your family

Always remembered Graham. Your kind, gentle soul and that huge, warm grin I will never forget.
Rest easy now G Ram - you have more than earned it❤️
