Peter Graham born February 20th 1949, passed away on October 24th 2021 at the age of 72 in Vancouver British Columbia. Peter was a loving husband, a devoted father, hockey fan; and a warm friend to many people. Peter was born and raised in the town of Trail BC (son of Colin and Irene Graham) and it's there he met the love of his life, Donna DePaolis. The first time he laid eyes on her he knew he was hooked; they eloped to Vegas in the Summer of 71, and so began a lifelong romance that resulted in 4 children. (Peter Jr, Lauren, Cole and Clark) Peter and Donna soon relocated to Vancouver BC after high-school and it was there he attended Simon Fraser University and began his career in the restaurant business. Peter was a charismatic man and his love of people resonated in his work. He was always the life of the party and had the sharpest wit in the room. After relocating to Langley BC to raise his family, Peter eventually worked his way to becoming a business owner and starting the long lasting and extremely well respected restaurant "La Mansione" in Chilliwack BC. Peter brought fine dining and class to the community and established a great family business that brought joy to the many customers he served over the years. During this period in his life he discovered his love of Golf and it became a lifelong passion that he shared with his children and friends. As a father he supported his kids in the pursuit of their dreams and always did what he could to help them on that journey. His proudest achievement was having a family and building a life for them to dream, love and laugh. Peter is survived by his wife, four children, his brother, sister, sisters & brother-in-law, nieces & nephews.
