Very sad to hear of the passing of Graeme, whilst our paths did not cross a lot over the past 30 years, my memories of being part of Graeme’s team back in the early 80’s at Firestone Tyres will always remain. Your mentorship in my early working life did not go waste and I thank you for that. Jeanette, our thoughts are with you at this difficult time and hope all the memories help ease the pain.

You were emcee at my parents wedding 38 years ago, Nearly 5 years ago, you were in hospital at the same time as Dad, 4 months ago you were at my father’s funeral.

I’m sure you and Dad will be racing like crazy or at least taking care of the tires 🛞

Sincere condolences to Jeanette & family. Mondsy was a true gentleman and a great. role model to our kids during their go carting days. Nothing was too much trouble for him and he always had time for the kids with tips & advice. They loved interacting with him & he was their go to man. I can say the same applies to me personally during my trucking days using Latrobe Valley Bandag as my tyre supplier. RIP Graham

It’s hard to believe your fight is over and you are gone Mondsy 🥲 Your presence will be greatly missed beyond the karting community. You were always up for a bit of fun and a joke – but I wasn’t keen on being poked by your walking stick. We will cherish our memories of you and were pleased to see you in your element at the last Sprintcar Classic, sneaking sips out of a coke can!
Much love and condolences to you Jeanette xxx

Our condolences to Jeanette and family during this really difficult and sad time.
Mondsy, only having met you in the last 10 years, it didn’t take me long to realise what a remarkable human being you were. Cheeky, kindhearted, compassionate, a true gentleman with a heart of gold. Your ability to communicate with people of all ages was evident, and I was lucky enough to witness this firsthand. My daughter Layla spoke very highly of you, and she always looked forward to seeing you on the hill in Warrnambool. The day you told her that you would buy her the Ando t-shirt she was lining up to pay for, changed her life. I will miss our chats, maybe not you paying out on me for working at Westpac, but you will be sorely missed.
RIP mate!

Wat a great man sorry mate I couldn’t be there mozzie rip mate u gave me and my son great memories I karting and coffee I always remember when u raced at coff u where always talking about the pie man take care u hav the bigest karting track up there RIPxoxo

Dearest condolences to you Jeanette for the loss of such a great man. I have had the privilege of not only a respectful business relationship but I also was honoured to be able to attend the Melbourne Speedway with both of you where I was constantly having the p**s taken out of me as I cried about the cost of tyres and fuel!
Further to that, when I assisted to build the Morwell Cart Track , Graeme reminded me that I would never beat his lap time (I am still working on it)
Graeme’s life will be celebrated today and he will be remembered as a loving husband, a kind friend and a fair and ethical businessman.
