He of Walkerton passed away peacefully at home on Sunday, July 5, 2026, in his 81st year.

Born on May 26, 1946, in Kirkland Lake, Ontario, Gary was raised in Matheson, where he developed the strong work ethic that would guide him throughout his life.

Beloved husband of Lesley, Gary was the devoted father of Allen (Nicole) and Lynn (Rob) Bell. He was a proud grandfather to Dr. Madison (Alex), Kenzie (Dan), Sarah (David), Alexa, Pierre (Diana), and Stephanie (Nicholas), and a cherished great-grandfather to Stella, Ava, and Sam.

Gary Alexander Graham will be lovingly remembered by his sisters-in-law, Judy Graham and Deb (Eric), as well as his niece, Tammy, and his nephews, Ronald (Shelley) and Cody.
