Graham Wilkie was born in Uphall, Mid Lothian on December 29, 1948 and left us behind on 17th March 2012. He is much loved and will always be remembered by all his friends and family. Graham was a man who touched innumerable lives in a positive way. He had time for everybody, he rarely judged others, and in his own quiet way he made peoples lives better. One of his catch phrases was "leave it with me" and then things would be solved, fixed, made right. He never boasted about himself and his achievements but we've never been prouder of him than we are now. He loved nature and was never happier than when he was out fishing, walking the dogs, being in nature. He had a naughty sense of humour and when my sister and I were younger he would torture us with his tricks and jokes, and as we grew older he targeted the younger generations, so many of who have told us that he was their favourite uncle and why? Probably because he played with them like children, he never looked down on them and he was fun. Later in life, Graham experienced ill health but we never let him dwell on it and we know that in the last months of his life he was happier than he had been in a long time, that he had a future to look forward to and although he is now at peace, we his family and friends are not. We mourn his passing with all of our hearts, minds and souls. Maybe the depth of our grief is balanced by the depth of our love for him and we look forward to the day when we are all together again. Love you always and forever Graham - your family and friends.
