Peter Richard Graham

Peacefully, on Monday 23rd February 2026, at 10:50 PM, surrounded by his devoted family.

​Predeceased by his beloved wife Marie and his parents Mary and Richard Graham. ​Deeply regretted and forever loved by his children Stephen, Peadar, Edel, Fergal, Finnbarr and Aisling, his daughters-in-law/children's partners Sinead and Lorraine, his sons-in-law/children's partners Paddy, Darragh and Andrew and his cherished grandchildren Adara, Sophie, Ross, Ronan, Jacob, Cormac, Robert, Emma and Keela. Sadly missed by his extended family, brothers and sisters, neighbours and many friends.

​A respected builder and entrepreneur, Peter was well known for his lifelong contribution to construction across County Laois. A man of immense generosity and work ethic, he took great pride in his craft but his greatest devotion was always to his family. When asked how he was, Peter was famously known for his quick wit and his trademark reply: "Rotten, thank God."

​The Graham family would like to express their sincere gratitude to the staff and nurses for the exceptional care given to Peter during his final days

especially Jack, Audrey, Caroline, Shelly and Paul and to Mary and Sarah and staff of the Beacon Hospital.

​May he Rest In Peace
