Bobbie we are so sorry to hear of Graham’s passing. You both were always so kind to us and wonderful neighbors. Graham’s enthusiasm and passion for fishing was unmatched. And his affection for you was always obvious. You will continue to be in our thoughts and prayers. The Smiths
Bobbie, I wish I knew what to say to make this easier for you but I don't have those right words! I know that your heart is broken and that you are in shock! He was your husband for 60 years!! A long time doing life together! Everytime I saw Graham he was so kind and friendly with me. Of course, I asked him about his fishing! He WAS the Southpointe fisherman! I always thought how young he looked and how active he was, driving and fishing!! A perfect picture of Graham above! Please know that you and all of the family are in my thoughts and prayers! Don't ever forget that you are not alone and very much loved! Ann Bossert
