Condolences (10)

Marsha Clayton MONTICELLO, AR January 14, 2022
"Dr. Graber enjoyed discussing finance, economics, dogs, and chess with his students and colleagues at UAM. He funded a scholarship and established two student organizations on campus, the Finance Club and the Dog-Lovers Club. Through the Finance Club students had the opportunity to hear guest speakers from investment and finance businesses in the area. The Dog-Lovers Club worked with the community organization 2nd Chance for Dogs to provide resources and find homes for dogs. A magazine for Chess enthusiasts published an article he wrote on chess in rural areas.

Dr. Graber could often be seen walking one or more of his dogs on campus and around Weevil Pond. Rest in Peace Dr. Graber and Condolences to the Family.

"I am Dr Graber next door neighbor. We had several good visits in the yard. We shared the love of dogs. He ate Sunday dinner with our family once. I intended to attend the service but I am 84 and avoiding crowds. We will miss him"
