DONALD ALLEN GRAHAM

1932-2020

 

On Wednesday June 10, 2020 Dad passed after a short illness.

Don was predeceased by his wife of 63 years, Eleanor and is survived by Sammy the Wonder Dog, son Brent (Debbie), daughter Bev (Rob), grandchildren Ryan and Kyla, and great grandson Jaxon.

Dad was born on May 24, 1932 in Carman but Myrtle Manitoba was home. He started working for the CNR at 16 and remained a loyal employee for 41 years. Dad was a Scout leader and drove for Cancer Care. He also rode his “Papa Skoot” in the Skooter unit for the Shriners. One of Dad’s proudest accomplishments was receiving his 65 year bar as a member of the Masonic Lodge. He was also past president of Breezy Bend Country Club and loved golf and his time at the course. Retirement years were spent at Lady Smith on the island and taking care of grandchildren.

The family would like to thank Dr. Raubenheimer, the staff at Sturgeon Creek One, and the nurses on the 3rd floor of the Grace Hospital for all their care.

Dad did not want a service but did request a family meal at Rae and Jerry’s, his favourite.

Any donations in Don’s name can be made to a charity of your choice.
