RIP BJ Graham - Page 2

This one's a hard one to swallow. Our family has known Mike & BJ for decades, spending a lot of time together in the early years both at their house and ours. One thing rarely discussed was BJ's love of art, will never forget the paintings she used to do. And how she could lighten the mood under the most difficult circumstances. I have too many memories of her to share here. Mike my sincere sympathy and prayers to you, I know probably more than anyone how much of an anchor and literally your right arm she truly was in everything you two ever did, and for many years. She will be greatly missed. Rest In Peace Barbara Jean.

Our thoughts and prayers to Mike.
BJ was one of a kind. The sweetest, strongest lady we have ever met and loved. There are no words. She fought a hard fight and is now racing in heaven.

Our prayers are with you.

Donna and Gary

This one hurts. Even though I didn't know Mike and B.J. personally, I considered them friends. I knew what B.J. was going through and we had talked a few times. When my wife passed in 2018 Mike sent the best private message I could ever get. They have been in my prayers for a long time. I guess she is no longer suffering, but that doesn't make it any easier.

Godspeed B.J. and may God comfort Mike and their many friends at this time.
