Rev. Paul “David” Graham passed away April 18, 2025, after a two-year battle with cancer. He was the son of Paul and Hazel Graham, who pastored United Brethren churches in the Midwest.

 

David, born in 1945 in Celina, Ohio, attended Huntington University and went on to pastor UB churches for 16 years, 1971-1987. During that time, he earned a Master’s degree in Clinical Psychology and became a Marriage and Family Therapist.

 

In 1987, the Grahams moved to Chico, Calif., where David worked as a therapist before retiring in 2015.
