After serving in the Air Force, Mr Grafton worked in the Logging industry in his Father's business before taking over that business and running it until retirement. "Pepaw" was a loving Grandfather who not only thought that all children should have a swing set, but made sure that they did. He was a long and faithful fan of the Tioga Indians where his son-in-law Jerry Ingram coached and two Grandchildren and one Great-Grandchild played. Mr. Grafton was ever present at various events including Little League games, All-star games, High School football games and track meets with his video camera recording memories that still last today.
