Our sincerest condolences to Dorothy, Glenn and Meryl on the loss of a wonderful husband and father. A man well loved and a life well lived. with love from Jim and Grace, Kate, Anne, Veronica and Lisa

2. Uncle Graham was a very dear friend to our family. Growing up in Palm Court meant that we were very fortunate to spend lots of fun moments with Uncle Graham and his family. I have many fond memories of our times spent at the McColl's house. There was always laughter and joy and we were always welcomed at any time. He was always such a gentleman and will be sadly missed. With all our love, Kylie Thompson (nee Stoneham)

4. Uncle Graham was a wonderful, caring man to our family during our days in Palm Court, Lower Templestowe. My parents Joan and Phillip Stoneham were neighbours to Dorothy and Graham, Auntie Dot and Uncle Graham to my sister Kylie and I. We were neighbours for 8 years and from the time I was born to the day we left Palm Court Uncle Graham was fun, loved to laugh, always active and my parents always knew they had a true friend around our family when Graham was with us. As a little girl I was always so happy to ring the doorbell to see Auntie Dot and Uncle Graham and 'chat', usually to tell all the stories of what was happening in our world. Meryl and Glen were like cousins and we loved having family catch ups or just fun in the street at Palm Court. Later in life Auntie Dot and Uncle Graham would regularly catch up and I would always be so interested to hear of what was happening at the Carlton Football Club. They were special days and Graham McColl a special man. All my love to Auntie Dot, Meryl and Glen, our deepest condolences. Nikki Harkin (nee Stoneham)

6. I started the TIT training along with Graham in 1950 and attended many reunions with him over the years after we retired.
   We also came across each other at the Carlton F.C. as I was a supporter from my young days and later became an official at the Club
   Kind regards to you all.
