Graham Alexander Lemmon

Beloved husband of Yupha for 35 years; devoted father to daughters Marie and Shelly, and son Nathan; grandchildren Taron, Hunter, Kennedy, Murray and Maia; great grandson Leo; and siblings, Anice and Stewart.

Graham was born in Lower Hutt, New Zealand to Scottish parents William and Violet Lemmon. His older sister Anice describes Graham as her birthday present, arriving one day before her own seventh birthday. Graham’s first trip around the world was with his best friend Bill Riley at twenty-one years old. He continued traveling well into his eighties. He particularly came to love Yupha’s homeland of Thailand where they would often enjoy extended visits with family and friends.

Graham was always an ambitious and hard-working man. From humble beginnings and leaving school at 15 years old, Graham went on to start up and own the Retaining Walls Company in Atlanta, GA. Despite all his business success, Graham will tell you that his greatest success was his family.

We’re told that from birth Graham had a huge personality. To Graham, a stranger was a friend he had not yet met. Graham undoubtedly lived life to its fullest. From spending time with his family, car shopping, traveling the globe, car shopping, dining out, car shopping, and many good times with many good friends from all around the world, Graham would be the first to tell you –“I’m not normal”.

Graham is preceded in death by his parents, William and Violet and daughter-in-law, Marcia.

A Celebration of Life will be held at Roswell Funeral Home on Sunday March 1, 2026. Visitation at 11 am, service at 12 pm.
