Ronald Graham Obituary

Jennifer and Mrs. Graham, I am so sorry for your loss. Jen, I remember your Dad well from when he used to visit you at Wofford and he was always so happy and fun and easy to be around. I was so sad to hear about his passing. I'm thinking about all of you during this time.

Dear Toni and Graham Family: May the Lord be with you and give you strength now, and in the days ahead. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and the family. Please know that it was truly a pleasure knowing and attending church with Ron over the years. He always had something funny to say and wore some very interesting bow ties to church. We will miss him deeply as we know many others will too.

Jennifer and Family,
There are no words to express our sorrow for you during this time. Please know that you are in our prayers and that we are lifting you up and are here for you in any way that you need. God's peace and comfort to you in only the way that He can give.

Toni, you and your family are in my thoughts and prayers. Do you remember when we first started dance class ... and the two of you were there... he gave all of us such a hard time - but we loved it. He was truly one of the nicest people I've ever met.

To The Graham Family:

I was shocked and saddened to hear of Ronnie's passing. He welcomed me to the staff of Sangaree Intermediate School about 10 years ago. He was a very supportive administrator who shared his contagious sense of humor with all of us who knew him. Berkeley County School District has lost a dedicated educator; those of us who knew him have lost a caring friend; and those of you who loved him have lost his precious presence, but not his spirit of joy. We are all better for having known him. Please know that your family will be in my prayers as you seek to find comfort in your loss.

Graham Family, I am saddened to hear of Ron's passing. He was my company commander while I was with the SC National Guard in Kingstree. He was a fine gentleman and a real leader. COL Nick Zoeller, Joint Staff, Pentagon

Toni and Jennifer,

I enjoyed working under Ron the year he was at Sangaree Elementary and then seeing him when he was at the Intermediate School. He always had a smile on his face or a joke to tell. He was a wonderful man and will be missed by all. You are both in my thoughts and prayers.

Dear Toni, Jennifer and Family,

What an honor it has been for us to know Mr. Graham! Just to be in his presence made us smile. I came to know this wonderful man that I called Mr. Graham through teaching. In recent years my husband has had the pleasure of knowing Ron through his dedication to the Exchange Club. The highlight of any Exchange gathering was to see Mr. Graham and his lovely wife Toni. We loved his laughter, his jokes and his endless teasing.

We have learned so much about living and about what really matters from this kind and generous man. He was always a teacher at heart, and will be missed more than words can express. Mr. Graham has been a gift in our lives, and we will honor him by continuing to laugh and smile as we hold close the memories he has given us to cherish.

Love and Prayers to all,
The Robinson Family

Dear Graham Family,
I only knew Mr. Graham for a short time, but I will always remember how welcome he made me feel when I joined the faculty at Hanahan Middle. He always had a smile on his face and something positive to say. He will be missed. You are in my prayers.

Toni and Jennifer, I am so very sorry to hear about Ron. He was a wonderful man and will be very missed by everyone. I share in your loss and will keep you close in my prayers. Carol Dodd

Dear Toni and Jennifer-
We would like to give our sincere sympathy to you and your family. Ron was a wonderful administrator to work with and I admired him very much in my teaching career. Jennifer- I enjoyed teaching you piano for so many years- I am so sorry about the loss of your father. Even though the pain is great now, it helps to know that others do care and in time you can remember all the wonderful memories you had with your husband and father.

Mrs. Graham, Jennifer, & Family,
I was so saddened to hear of Mr. Graham's passing. He was such a warm and welcoming man whose teasing always made me feel like one of the family. He will be missed.

Toni and Jennifer,
You are in our thoughts and prayers. We are glad to have known Ronnie, although not well, but we know what a fine man he was. We see the reflection of him in his fine daughter.
Love,
Fred and Donna

I was saddened to hear about the passing of Mr. Graham. He was my 8th grade teacher many years ago. He was one of the teachers who inspired me to be a teacher for going on 26 years. I will always remember his kindness and caring for those he cared about. He would always call to check on my mom and dad and after he found out they had cancer he visited my dad in the hospital and continued to call to check on them. We have truly lost a remarkable man but I know that he is in heaven and welcoming others with his humor and his caring ways. If I can do anything for you please let me know.

Dear Toni & Jennifer,
We were saddened to hear about Ronnie. Rarely in this lifetime does one meet someone who was so full of life, good cheer, and always ready to lend an ear. It's comforting to have had the chance to have an extended phone conversation with Ronnie just a month ago. Ron and I were both laughing so hard we were in tears. That will remain a treasured memory of one of the kindest people I have ever known.

Bev and I will keep you in our thoughts in prayers.

To The Graham Family,
We wanted to extend our deepest sympathy for your loss of a man admired and always a friend to all. We can remember going to church with your family and especially how much he and Dad enjoyed each others company. We were also charter members of St. James UMC. I know he will be greatly missed by you but also by all who knew him. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all. Vicki & David Priester Family, Thelma & Jim Motts, Jamie and Marcus Rowell Family.

Thank you, Mr. Graham, for giving me the opportunity 30 years ago to become a teacher. I will always contribute my success as an educator to you. You were a wonderful administrator and you will be missed by all. Rest in Peace.

Dear Toni & Jennifer,

We are heartbroken over the loss of Ronnie. How we'll miss his dry wit and merciless teasing. He was one fun-loving guy who cheered up everyone around him - even on days when he was not feeling up-to-speed. It's a rare combination for someone to possess the ability to tease as relentlessly as Ron did and yet be such a genuinely kind person.

You've lost your soulmate and father. We have lost a friend who was like a brother to us both and another grandfather to Kylie. Please know that we will always be here for you and are keeping you both in our heart and prayers in the days, weeks, and months ahead. We love you too.

With heartfelt sadness,
Bill & Elaine

Toni and Jennifer, I would like to extend my deepest sympathy. Mr. Graham was a wonderful man and has left many great memories for everyone. I cherish the years I worked with him...he was an inspiration to everyone. He always brought sunshine to the lives of those he met.
