Carla Tassone wrote a sympathy message

“Grahame's passing saddened me. I fondly recall him as "Blackie". Memories stir up of my time based at DAFWA Katanning Office and my interactions with the wonderful biosecurity team. He was welcoming, willing to share and often enlightened me with his "biosecurity pursuits" and tales of his time overseas, growing up. Ultimately this positive experience inspired me to join the department. Only hoping he spent more time in Canada, and sharing family photos of son's, daughter-in-law and grand-kids.”

Simon Merewether wrote a sympathy message

“I knew Grahame for many years during the APB and Dept of Ag journey. He was a top bloke and very passionate about all things he became involved with. He was an exceptional asset in the organisation, and shared his knowledge with all. Mentoring and leading all around him, we all benefited from him being on the team.”

Dana Price wrote a sympathy message

“I am so sad to hear of the passing of Grahame. Grahame was a fantastic mentor to me when I joined DAFWA at Katanning in 2004. Grahame was welcoming, always generous with his time and knowledge and had a great sense of humour. I credit Grahame with fostering my interest in invasive species, a space I still work in today. Whether surveying for skelly weed, running chemical trials for heliotrope or managing locust control operations, Grahame was always enthusiastic and fun. He will be sadly missed.”

Kathryn Batchelor wrote a sympathy message

“Grahame was a treasured long standing committee member of the Weeds Society of Western Australia. Campaigned for the eradication program on bedstraw in agriculture and greatly contributed to community weed education, particularly their identification, impact and control across the south west of the state. One of natures gentlemen that will be missed by all that worked with him. A thorn in the side of blackberry.”
