I remember once he was naughty (I don't remember what he did) and his punishment was to sit with me in my desk for the day. In those days they were bench desks with lift...

At that time in the 1970s we were working together on a...

Russell first met Graeme when he moved to Townsville with GHD, and Graeme introduced him to the local bushwalking club, and where we shared many happy trips together. Later, after we were married, we joined Graeme and then partner Pauline on a wonderful driving trip to the tip of Cape York, which was quite an adventure in those days. In typical Gra...
Graeme HowarthAs described by others, Graeme was free with his time and advice to all and l certainly benefitted professionally from his generosity in this area. In more recent times l had re established a connection
at a more personal level and lunched with him when he was well enough. He will be missed.
Condolences to his family.26th February, 2024

Glenda Nicholson(nee Campbell)Graeme was my first boyfriend at the age of 16. I remember the first Fiat car on Saturday night outings to the Pakenham and Cranbourne dances, he was very proud of it. I was happy to see that he excelled in his field and made many advances which helped people. My thoughts go to Dawn and Peter at this sad time.21st February, 2024

You were also fun to go out with after work, fearless in your endevers 😁.

Bill and Helen WilkesGraeme you will forever be in our hearts. You were a great travel buddy, Shiraz and single malt enthusiast and a late night tennis critic. Work is another story, the engineering world has lost a great mind and mentor. Hope heaven is full of Lego.16th February, 2024
