Dear Wendy,
We feel your pain and grief these days following the passing of your dear husband Graham.
We met you both through my cousin Liz Bell from Mansfield. We met in person during your trip to Europe and spent a few days together.
We often think of the excursions to Lake Traunsee or to the mountains with lots of snow and sunshine. It was a wonderful time with you both.
Since then we have been in regular contact.
Graham with his calm and friendly manner will always remain in our fond memories.
Our sincere condolences.
Erich and Maria
Graham Amor was a simple, quiet, no fuss gentleman. He and Wendy first met all of the Reddy/Phillips family in 1985 after a visit from John and Peg Reddy in Australia years before. Graham has always been the man behind the wheel, chauffeuring us around Western Australia while graciously helping to forge a whole new family of cousins from the US. Graham indulged the family with visits to Denver, and beyond, for years. Graham was always a willing participant, with even more visits as Jim and Margie’s girls grew into adults and had families of their own.
Graham’s smile and dry wit made us always feel loved and welcomed. Weather he was behind the wheel, driving Elizabeth from coast to coast while she studied abroad at UWA, or flying to meet Bri and Regis in Europe, or taking Cassie to Margaret River, Graham always was the gracious gentle guy, willing to literally go to the ends of the earth for Wendy and the family. Jim and I laugh to this day, remembering Graham taking us around in the car to find an elusive Roo to see before we had to return to the states. He was determined that the American cousins would have a memorable holiday, Kangaroo and all. After every trip, what stood out the most about our times together, was not only the memories of some very fun adventures and lovely times, but Graham’s unfailing devotion to Wendy. His example of love, patience and kindness will remain with us always. Thank you Graham for your love, we will miss you.
A lovely man who welcomed us into the family with warmth and compassion. So sorry we did not have a chance to spend more time with him.
Thinking of you today and wishing we could be with you. Our thoughts are with you and we are comforted with the knowledge that you have lots of family and friends there to support you. Remembering all the good times shared, love Elvie and Sherilyn xx
Uncle Graham, you will forever hold a special place in my heart. Your kindness, humour, and cheeky smile brought so much light to us. While I feel great sadness at your passing, I will treasure my memories of you and carry them with me always. Much love and my sincere condolences to you Wendy.
I am feeling much sadness on Grahams passing. Sending my love to Wendy.
While we lived on opposite sides of the country I feel that Graham, and you Wendy have always been present in my life. I loved spending time with Graham. Nothing was ever hard. His cheeky smile, his humour. He was a great uncle. I'll always look fondly of childhood memories of Christmas' in Mansfield with you both, and wondering what far off place in the world we would be getting T-shirts from, and I cherish the times we have spent in more recent years and Graham getting to know his grand nieces. Much love to you Wendy and my sincere condolences ❤️
It’s sad that we often don’t realise the impact someone has had on our lives until they’re gone. While I wish this wasn’t the case, Graham’s passing has prompted me to reflect on his significant influence during my childhood in Perth, a simpler time filled with fond memories. With no family nearby, Graham and Wendy stepped in to provide unwavering support, even moving into our family home to care for my brother and I while our parents were overseas – no small feat given our young ages of 5 and 2! Graham’s calming presence created a sense of ease and safety, and his thoughtful words, often accompanied by a cheeky quick-witted remark, left a lasting impression. Graham, thanks for being such a big part of my happiest years. Rest easy, and I’ll see you on the other side.

To the greatest Santa Clause to ever don the suit . Brigitte and I will forever hold the memory of the joy you brought to a young Orson at Christmas . Our lives bettered by your quiet , giving spirit . Love to you and Wendy . Anthony , Brigitte and Orson Barrett .
Graham is a simple and quiet man. What he doesn’t say in words, he makes up his actions. I remember when we were in Kaiserslautern, Wendy and Graham visited us for the first time in Germany. Graham had noticed that we didn’t have a water kettle because Wendy was fussing about the fact we needed a proper electric kettle. Later that day, while we were out wandering around, we walked past a home good store, and Graham walked straight in and walked right out with his purchase. It was a new electric kettle. This story I think just illustrates the essence of Graham and how he was a human. Thoughtful, generous and kind and I know that he will be missed here on earth, but I’m grateful for having another angel to watch over me and my girls in heaven.
Love the Koundjia Family
Liebe Wendy!
Wie beide, Maria und Erich, wir fühlen in diesen Tagen, deinen Schmerz und deine Trauer nach dem Ableben deines lieben Gatten Graham.
Wir haben euch beide durch Vermittlung meiner Cousine Liz Bell aus Mansfield kennen gelernt.
Bei eurem Europa Trip haben wir uns persönlich getroffen und einige Tage miteinander verbracht.
Wir denken noch sehr oft an die Ausflüge zum Traunsee oder auf Berg mit viel Schnee und Sonnenschein. Es war eine sehr schöne Zeit mit euch beiden.
Seit dieser Zeit waren wir regelmäßig in Kontakt.
Graham mit seiner ruhigen und freundlichen Art wird uns immer in guter Erinnerung bleiben.
Unsere aufrichtige Anteilnahme.
Maria und Erich
To aunty Wendy and family, letting you know that we are thinking of you all during this very sad time, and we send our sincere condolences and prayers to you all. It was so lovely to meet uncle Graham, he was charming, funny and very welcoming and those of us who had the pleasure to meet him feel blessed. Love and condolences from the O'Meara family in Derby WA
We the Rutherford family are deeply saddened by the loss of Graham, a truly remarkable man who held a special place in Mum’s heart. I feel incredibly grateful to have spent time with him during his final days — moments I will forever treasure.
Graham had an extraordinary knowledge of his hometown and our family’s history, which he shared with such passion and pride. He was a bridge between generations, reminding us of where we come from and what truly matters — family, community, and love.
Our hearts go out to his beloved wife Wendy, who stood by him with unwavering strength and devotion. May she find comfort in the beautiful life they built together and the lasting legacy he leaves behind.
He will be dearly missed but never forgotten.
Tanya Rutherford and family xx
