   Jimmy Graham, a beloved husband, father, and friend, passed away on November 18, 2025, at the age of 83. Born on September 5, 1942, in Bliss, Missouri, Jimmy lived a life full of joy, wisdom, and a dedication to helping others.

   On May 9, 1998, he was united in marriage to Joan (Farris) Graham, and together they enjoyed 27 wonderful years filled with love and laughter. Known for his fun-loving spirit, Jimmy was a man rich with knowledge, always eager to lend a helping hand to those around him. He had a remarkable ability to connect with people, never having met a stranger, and this trait endeared him to many in his community.

   Jimmy had a wide array of hobbies and interests that kept him actively engaged in life. He was passionate about working on cars and trucks, as well as small engines. A collector at heart, he enjoyed acquiring coins and often spent cherished moments sitting on his front porch, conversing with friends and family.

   He is survived by his wife, Joan Graham; son, Waylon Graham, and wife, Mystie; daughter, Marsha Graham; and brothers, Ronald Benson and Tracy, and Charlie Benson and wife, Sandy.

   Jimmy was preceded in death by his parents, Clara and Buster Benson; his son, James "Bubby" Graham, Jr.; brothers, Larry Graham and Ralph Warden; sister, Mary Ann Gregory; and grandson, Chad Graham.

   His legacy of kindness, passion for life, and loving nature will continue to inspire all who knew him. Jimmy will be deeply missed but fondly remembered in the hearts of many.
