Graham Sayles, of Doylestown, passed away peacefully in his home and among family on Friday, February 15, 2019. He was 30 years old.

Graham was born in Philadelphia and was the son of Victoria and Timothy Sayles, also from Doylestown.

Graham attended Central Bucks High School and from an early age enjoyed sports of all types, from street hockey and karate to sailboat racing with his father. He was always a fan of Flyers hockey and Eagles football.  Graham was particularly fond of competitive paintball and was very active in regional teams that qualified for national competitions.  He continued until health limited his participation.

His ability to understand, appreciate and empathize with friends and family, particularly in times of need, was a trait for which Graham will be remembered. His warmth and humor – even during his long illness – made others feel special, and his genuine thoughtfulness allowed him to naturally and selflessly offer friendship and encouragement.

In addition to his parents, Graham is survived by his sister Suong and brother Trevor and Emily Raterman, in addition to his niece and nephew, of whom he was very fond. 

Relatives and friends are invited to greet the family from 10:00am until his Funeral Mass 11:00am on Saturday, March 2^nd at Our Lady of Mount Carmel Church, 235 East State Street, Doylestown, PA 18901. Graham’s interment will be private.
