Timothy Wayne Graham, 55, of Newport, went to his heavenly home on Sept. 20, 2021, after a long 20-year battle with multiple health complications.
Timmy was born on Nov. 16, 1965, to Harry Kawood Graham and Nancy Ellen Graham. He was a graduate of Blacksburg High School class of 1984. Soon after, he wed Tammy Reynolds Graham in 1987, and they had three children: Dalton Reynolds Graham, Dillon Keister Graham, and Drew Madison Graham.
Timmy was a force of nature, determined to provide for his family and give them the life he felt they deserved. His family meant more to him than anything else in the world, something he often mentioned. He was undeniably proud of Dalton, Dillon, and Drew and always supported them each and every day.
Anyone who knew Timmy knew that he was the most loving father and husband a family could ever ask for. Timmy was predeceased by his mother, Nancy Ellen Graham, and his in-laws, William Osborne Reynolds and Grace Keister Reynolds.
He is survived by his father, Harry Kawood Graham; his wife; Tammy Reynolds Graham; his children, Dalton Reynolds Graham, Dillon Keister Graham (Alyssa Page), and Drew Madison Graham; siblings Tina Graham Carroll, Ford Graham (Pam Graham), Michael Graham, and Scottie Graham (Donna Graham); in-laws Robin Reynolds and Jan Gilbertson (Phil Gilbertson); nieces and nephews Jamie McGuire, Joey Carroll, Candace Keene, Kelley Graham, Whitney Akers (Justin Akers), Justin Graham, and Lucas Graham (Deidre Graham); several great-nephews whom he adored; numerous aunts, uncles, cousins; and his Myrtle Beach family and “chosen family,” you know who you are.
The family sends a special shout-out to all of the doctors, nurses, and staff members at Fresenius Medical Care who were such a big part of his life; we can’t thank you enough.
A celebration of Timmy’s life will be held on Monday Sept. 27, 2021, at McCoy Funeral Home from noon to 2 p.m. Visitation with service and graveside will follow at the Newport Cemetery on Winding Way Drive in Newport, Va.
