In Loving Memory of Graham P. Chynoweth
1945 - 2008
In Loving Memory
He was dearly loved and he will be sorely missed, but we are thankful for our time with him.

Welcome to the website honoring the man so many loved and cared for, and who loved and cared for so many, Graham P. Chynoweth.  The purpose of this website is to give the people who loved Graham P. a place to go remember the joy he brought to our lives and to celebrate his legacy.  We encourage you to sign the guest book with thoughts or remembrances of Graham P.

Also, please visit  the Graham P. Memorial Awards page to find out about Graham P. living legacy at Canterbury Elementary School.

We would like to thank the artists (Dudley Laufman, Steve Schuch, and Ruth Heath) that helped make the memorial service so lively and meaningful.  As Graham P. enjoyed their work so much during his life, we thought it fitting that we include their Graham P. inspired work here.

SONNET FOR GRAHAM

1945 - 2008

He said he was getting himself ready to step
into his boat and push away.
He would wave to us from every cresting
on his journey home across the bay.

We visited him one afternoon. He wore
his woolen cap. We made small talk, saving
goodbyes until we went out on the porch.
He waved us out of sight, he kept on waving.

Thanksgiving dinner over, folks were gone.
Graham and Linda silent by the window,
watching squirrels scamper by the pond.
Graham's eyes were wide with blue and wonder. 

He asked, "What time is it? I want to know."
Linda said softly, "Time to go home."

Dudley Laufman
