Following a brief illness and surrounded by loved ones, Graham passed away peacefully at Huntington Memorial in Pasadena, California.
He was a very kind and loving Husband, Father, Grandfather, Son, Brother, and Uncle.
Graham was born in Wyke, Bradford, Yorkshire, England. At the age of 4, he immigrated with his family to the LA area, finally settling into his family home in Arcadia in 1974. He attended school at Longley Way all the way through to Arcadia High School. Graham found his passion working on cars and spent his adult working life as a mechanic specializing in Cadillac and GM cars. He loved fishing and being outdoors, and he especially loved animals. If he could pick up every stray, he would.
Graham enjoyed time with his family, especially after retirement, and particularly with his grandchildren.
Graham is survived by his wife Malinda, daughter Haley and son-in-law Derek, son Elliott, step-son Timothy, father Graham, mother Dorothy, sister Angela and brother-in-law Robin, nieces Katherine and Jessica, and leaves behind 2 grandchildren.
