James J. Graham

November 13, 1965 — August 6, 2022

On Saturday, August the 6th of 2022, our loving son, brother, uncle, nephew and cousin, James Joseph "JimmyJoe" Graham has left from this earth to be with his Little Brother Michael Christopher. Jimmy was born on November 13th, 1965 at Mt. Carmel West Hospital. It was Saturday morning at 9:17 AM and he weighed 4 lbs. and 12 ozs. Although it was an untimely passing, now he is definitely in a better place. He is no longer having to fight the evils of this world all alone, as I'm sure we all know that he felt like this a lot of the time. We can honestly say that he now has a constant grin on his face and laughing hysterically. He once again has his RoadDog by his side. He is survived by his Mom, Sandy; his little brother, Aaron; sister's, Nicki and Ashley; nephew's, Troy, Travis, Bradley and Tannyr; niece's, Marissa and Trinity; aunt's, Mary Ellen and Wanda; uncle, Ralph; as well as cousins, Jerry, Angel and Terry Newsome and Terri and Jerri Flowers.  He is preceded in death by his brother, Michael Christopher; step-brother, Joey Drengacs; brother-in-law, Brock Parker; and his Uncle, Joe. I'm sure that we can all agree that he had a very good heart, an infectious smile and laughter and he always thought he was a real comedian; but that he wasn't, he was just simply himself. I'll bet that everyone is nodding their head when I use the word goofy to describe him. He was an avid sports fan. To be honest, no matter what the sport, if he thought he could beat the spread and win some money, he was all for it. I will have to admit that he was a die hard OSU Buckeyes fan. I will even go as far to say that if he could have gotten the job playing Brutus the Buckeye, he would have been in heaven on earth.  He had a knack around kids, I think that's because his entire life he was a kid at heart. One that absolutely refused to grow up. No matter what the conversation was about, he had a lot more than two cents to put in, even if he didn't know anything at all about the topic. He was stubborn as a mule, there was definitely NO way that you could ever get him to admit he was wrong. I'm going to finish with this... there was NEVER any doubt from anyone, that when he was himself, everyone just wanted to be around him because of his kind heart and gentle touch. Even his goofiness would surround you like a comforting hug that you never want to be released from. I'm speaking for all of us when I say this, Jimmy, there's no way that you could ever be replaced. You'll always have a very special, goofy place in our hearts.  We all miss you and will see you again one day
