Graeme Herbert Thompson (GraemeT)

This is Jeanette Thompson, Graeme's wife.




I wanted to let you know that Graeme passed away this morning after a long battle with cancer. He was at peace and in no pain.

There will be a notice in the smh tomorrow.




Kind regards
Jeanette Thompson

So sorry for your loss Jeanette. I didn't know him at all, but it seems he was regarded as a lovely man. May he rest in peace.

My thoughts are with you. From out of the primordial dust of the Galaxy we arise, and strive to give the Universe itself an awareness. And then, we are gone, but we persist in memory and matter.
