Graham SHIRLEY Obituary

Very sad to hear of Graham's passing, I have many fond memories of the middle 1980s working with Graham, we had many laughs, and I did learn so much from him, within the funeral industry, thank you Graham.
Warm regards to all his family.

Very sorry to hear of Graham's passing, I have many great memories of the time I worked with Graham in the middle 1980s, we had lots of laughs, and I remember all the training within the funeral side Graham helped me with.
Warm regards to all the family.

It was an enormous shock to our family when my sister, Joy, passed away so suddenly just over two years ago. Last week Graham passed on to be with his beloved Joy. They shared a very happy marriage together for just over 50 years, and brought up their three girls, who are all fine adults. They loved their four grand-children, and the whole family enjoyed many family holidays together. They are both in my prayers.
Love Susan Henderson, Bill Thomas, Christine, John, Stephanie and Philippa Bromley, Alan and Kristine Henderson, Scott, Kate, Sophia and Caitlin Henderson.

Sincere Condolances to the Family.
One of Natures Gentlemen with a great smile.

Diane, Kaye and Tina. So sorry to hear of the passing of your father. He and your mother were great friends during our Jaycee days.

A great guy. Always cheerful & interesting. Will miss our chats about Wellington days & international travel. The best landlord too.Nothing was ever a trouble at 90 Parkers Rd.

The best Dad and grandad. A true genuine gentleman who helped anyone and everyone. Thank you for all the personal kind messages. It is much appreciated.

With Fondest Memories of Graham.
What a wonderful pleasure I had of working alongside Graham for over 11 years with the Santa Parade. He was a STAR in helping me put the Parade together and I was truly grateful to him for all he did for me and the Nelson Santa Parade Trust in my time there.
My thoughts go out to all the family.
Kindest Regards

It is with deep sadness that we hear of Graham's passing. Graham and Joy were dear friends and employers of myself in the late 70's early 80's. Graham was like a brother and father figure to me. We were looking forward to seeing Graham in Jan 2019 when we are planning a holiday in Nelson.I remember you girls fondly- Diane, Kaye and Tina when you were very young. Best regards, Denis Martin and family, Australia.

My thoughts are with you, Diane, Lyndon and extended family. A lovely gentle man, with lots of stories from his past to tell. Treasure the memories. Heather McNabb
