I am so very sorry to hear about Mr. Graham's passing. I got to know Mr. and Mrs. Graham through the Minsters of Care at St. Francis and I always enjoyed our visits. John was an excellent conversationalist, a man of great faith, a loving husband, and a proud father and grandfather. I will miss him!

Dr. Graham, I'm so sorry for your loss. I still remember working for Mr. Graham summers during college and how much I learned about how to be a good employee. Please accept my prayers and deepest sympathy.

I am sorry for your loss. Other than Niles West HS, I believe I most often say you and John outside St. Peter's Church. Know that our family will remember John and your family in our Masses and prayers.

I have not seen John since I retired 17 years ago and maybe a bit before that. I have fond memories of him. He was a far-sighted leader. I remember how he led the district during the volatile issue surrounding the sale of one of their buildings. He stood up for religious rights and did not back down. And he was a brilliant thinker with a great sense of humor. My sympathies to Angela and the family. As we are still in Tucson for the winter, I will not be able to attend the service but I will be there in spirit.
