I worked with Graeme for a year at Skills Update. He was kind, fair, and had an unwavering and unending passion for electrotechnology. I became a better teacher because of his example. My deepest sympathies to his family.

Graham was a wonderful colleague and friend. His friendship and the wisdom he so generously shared meant a great deal to me. As a mentor, he taught me lessons I´ll never forget. He will be deeply missed and fondly remembered.
