Graham was a genuine and good person. To know him was to love him. He was always willing to step in and help anybody with anything any time. He loved his family and always bragged on Kim and his three granddaughters and loved them all dearly. I know he is still watching over you all.
Graham was a loyal friend and was always ready to help with whatever and whenever you asked. Quick with a smile. Never met a stranger. He will be sorely missed. My deepest sympathy and condolensces to his family.
Graham was a good friend for 55 years. I can say our best memories were created breaking bread somewhere. Where ever we were Graham new where to eat and what to order. Enjoy the heavenly banquet my friend and save me a seat.
Will miss you

Great Guy! Graham and Woody Brown sold me my first 3 homes in Rocky Mount starting in the early 70’s. We remained friends and often met for drinks after he moved to Raleigh. God bless he and his family. He was a true friend!!!
If Graham was your friend, you had a true friend…awesome guy!!
