Clinton Ray Graham of Waldron, Arkansas passed from this life, Friday, September 26, 2014 at his home. Clinton was born June 21, 1963 in Lubbock, Texas to J D and Bobbie (Woodall) Graham. Clinton was 51 years, 3 months and 5 days old. Clinton was a Christian. He was a member of the Harmony Freewill Baptist Church. He served as a deacon and the Sunday School Superintendent.
Clinton was an employee of Arkansas Valley Electric Coop, where he worked for 33 years. Working with a group of men for so long, it goes without saying they shared some good times and some tough times. It seems only natural that the bond of friendship they all have, nicknames would come into play. Even though very few could testify how Clinton received the name of "Moose" that was what he was most commonly known by. Outside of work Clinton was also a Master Electrician. However, when Clinton was not working or helping someone, he was an avid deer hunter. He also enjoyed rabbit hunting with his dogs. Lately, he had begun to take up the hobby of wood working. As active as Clinton was, he always enjoyed time spent with his family. He loved his family and friends and the memories made with each of them were his priceless treasures.
Clinton leaves behind to cherish his memory, his wife of 30 years, Tammy Graham of the home; one daughter Larissa House and son-in-law, Dylan of Waldron, Arkansas. Grandpa will forever be missed by his grandson Weston House. Clinton will also forever remain in the hearts of his parents, J D and Bobbie Graham of Waldron, Arkansas; two brothers, Chris Graham and wife Christy of Berryville, Arkansas, Carlton Graham and wife, Meredith of Waldron, Arkansas; father-in-law and mother-in-law, Eddie and Norma Swisher of Waldron, Arkansas, sister-in-law and brother-in-law, Amy and Greg McEntire of Waldron, Arkansas, nephew, Jacob Graham, and nieces, Danielle (Graham) Jameson and husband Whit of Greenwood Arkansas, and Ryleigh McEntire. Clinton will be missed by all that knew him and the many whose lives were impacted by him including aunts, uncles, friends and loved ones.
Clinton is preceded in death by one daughter, Macy Lea Graham; grandparents, Arvel and Irene Graham and Chester and Tiny Woodall.
