Sad news to hear. I knew Graeme when I did motor vehicle advertising and he was always a gentleman and a pleasure to deal with. More recently used to see him a lot walking his dog at the beach while i was surfing.
Condolences to Lyn and family

A few years ago I called in to Repco and saw Graeme still there. I'd seen a death notice in the paper for a Graeme Smith a few weeks earlier and thought it was him. He was greatly amused when I told him I thought he was dead already and pleased to be able to tell me otherwise. I'd always enjoyed dealing with Graeme since way back in his days at Johnson Motors. He was one of the very few parts people who'd actively help a young apprentice rather than deliberately try to make his life and work a misery. in Later years he continued to be a great help and was an absolute professional to deal with and a pleasure as well. Well it looks like I won't be pleasantly surprised next time I call in to Repco, requiescat in pace Graeme.

Sorry to hear of Graeme's passing Lyn.
My late father Ash, myself and the staff at Heydon Priest Oakura had the pleasure of dealing with Graeme almost on a daily basis for many years. I know Repco was a favourite pickup of Ash's, not so much for the parts but his interaction with Graeme. A nicer guy will not be found.
