Phil Graham

On Tuesday 13th March 2018 we lost one of our own with the sad passing away of Phil Graham better known as Ginger who was what you might call a bit of a character and certainly a Villa terrace legend.
That of course is only part of what Ginger was as a person and whilst he was a fiercely proud Villa lad he was also a great friend to those in need, always helping somebody despite his own health issues.
He never asked anybody for a penny, in fact he was never happier than when he was giving money out to those in trouble . Despite all of his own issues with health and incapacity to work he still provided for the family because he saw that was his priority . He had no life insurance and as mentioned was unable to work since he left Land Rover which again was another of his fierce passions, he loved Land Rover Solihull and was proud to have worked there.
My last conversation with him was about Karen, Joan, Sam and Rosie about helping them with what little money he had but let’s say a funeral was not part of the budget.
Well now he has gone we are looking to help Phil and make sure we can support the family in giving him a send off he and they would be proud of. This is why along with other friends of Ginger we have set this Go Fund Me page up with all monies received going to the family to help with the funeral costs.
Phil was born in Aston and left us on the streets of Aston and that’s how he would have wanted it.
