Daniel Arthur (Danny) Graham was born on August 13, 1949 in Lookeba, Ok to Ray and Alice (Robinson) Graham. Danny passed away on April 6, 2024 in Binger, OK at the age of 74. Danny grew up in Eakly, OK and he met and married the love of his life, Frances Wilson in Eakly on May 21, 1971. Danny loved Frances very much and thought she was the most beautiful woman in the world, frequently calling her “Angel”. The couple moved to Oney in 1984 and raised their children there in the Binger-Oney community. In his younger days, Danny enjoyed fishing, deer hunting, coon hunting, coon dogs, and game rooster but always enjoyed spending time with his family. When his grandchildren came along, he told everyone they were the best and became known as Papa Danny to them and everyone else. He was an avid supporter of the Binger Community and the Bobcats ball games. After he couldn’t drive to away games, the coaches would allow him to ride the bus with the kids to the games. He thought he was an assistant coach with no pay and no filter and very loved by all the coaches and players. He worked for Glen Stevens on the farm for many years. He worked as Co-Manager of the Eakly Coop Oney Branch until his health forced him to retire. Danny was a selfless person and always made sure everyone else was taken care of before himself, whether it was his children or his community. He did enjoy telling his son, Brandan, how to farm, calling daily asking all the questions, making sure everything was done. He will be greatly missed by all those who loved him.
