    Story

    We are raising money to cover the cost of Graham Hill's funeral. Graham passed away on 30 August 2017 aged 46. He was in the Army for over 20 years and was a proud soldier and proud of his family. He was especially proud that his eldest son followed him in to the Parachute regiment. Please donate what you can and we will aim to help the family as much as possible. Thank you.

      Just an quick update, the family have spoken to the British legion and she has been informed that they will not contribute to the funeral because Susan works full time supporting 3 children. I feel that this is kick in the teeth to a man who have 23 years service to his country. Thank you all for your donations.

      Thank you all so much. All of the tributes are a really lovely touch and the family are so thankful. I won't keep increasing the target but if people want to keep donating then that is fantastic. Once again thank you all. Graham will get the send off he deserves and more. Hope you see you all at the funeral to thank you in person.

      Thank you so much for the donations. The cost of the whole funeral is £8000. It costs £5800 Just for the burial plot as Graham wanted to be buried near where his children live and they charge extra because he was not a resident in the city. All donations will be a massive help and anything extra will go towards a beautiful headstone to commerate this great man.

      I'll be at sea so can't make it to the funeral. Your Dad was a good man. I had the honour of serving with him in Aldershot in the late 1990's. Stig
