In loving memory of Graham Peter Bentham, husband, father, grandfather and son who was suddenly taken from us on 17th November 2020. He loved life, his family and God. We miss him dreadfully but take comfort in our faith that he is now with his friend and Saviour, Jesus.

"Graham was involved in supporting Oasis International in many ways over a fifteen year period. He helped voluntarily in the finance department for many years; organised the annual golf fundraiser with Ireland as well as having involvement in several fundraising dinners. He was a big supporter of the football programme in the heart of one of Mumbai's Red Light Areas which he, along with Jo, visited in 2013. He did all this using his organisational skills and keen eye for detail alongside his warm enthusiasm for helping others."

I was shocked and saddened by the news of Graham’s passing.
I have known Graham for over 30 years when he was a client at Lloyd’s Bank where, with his loyal and friendly team, we became good friends. Even though I moved firms, he was fiercely loyal and the Lloyds work followed right up to his retirement.
We shared a love of golf and we would try and play together a couple of times a year . He was always great company and extremely positive.
My thoughts and prayers are with his family - he will be greatly missed.
We (x Lloyds Property Team) are planning to meet up when restrictions allow to raise a glass to Graham and remember him.

Still not believing that Graham has gone so soon. Our friendship goes back over 35 years, preceding all our children and over those years we have enjoyed many days together, holidays in many parts of the world, Christmases and weddings. Jo, Graham and the children have been more like family than friends and we have shared good and bad times together. I'm thankful for Graham's love, support, sense of humour and practical advice in so many areas, and we will all miss him so much. I promise to be there for Jo and even though there will be a big hole when we get together, I know you will be looking down on us. Rest in peace in your heavenly home, with no more building projects to oversee! Much love from Hilary, Tom and Laura
