Thank you
We would like to take the opportunity to thank everyone for their kind words and condolences. Martin, Peta & I have been deeply touched by the large and steady volume of cards, letters and flowers that have arrived over the past few days.
At times like these friends and family are most precious – it is said that it’s quality that matters but we are finding that quantity matters too!Apologies if I haven’t replied to your emails but, as I’m sure you will appreciate, there is a great deal of organising to do as well as dealing with the sheer enormity of Graeme not being with us anymore.

On Monday 1st June 2009 at 1830
Reception of the coffin into St Bartholomew’s Fleet Air Arm Memorial Church, Yeovilton.

Reception in the Wardroom of HMS Heron, RNAS Yeovilton.
