Wesley Graves

1947 - October 24, 2025

Our classmate John Novak informed us of the recent death of Wes Graves.  Wes died in McMinnville on October 24, 2025. 

Wes's son, Shayne Baker-Graves, posted the following on Facebook:

I post this with a heavy heart and have to report that my dad Wes Graves passed away on Friday the 24th, he was 78 years old.  I'm trying to take care of his cremation and final arrangements, but the costs are more than I can manage on my own right now.  I need to come up with $2095 in 2 days.  If anyone is able to help contribute, would be greatly appreciated.  There's absolutely no pressure--anything helps and is very appreciated.  Thank you all for the love and support during this time.  If you want to donate please reach out to me.  Thank you all so much!  I have also added my Venmo in the comments.
