HE WAS A #BORNAGAIN #CHRISTIAN. His killer proudly protests on the #GarvaghyRoad. On the morning, #Constable #JohnGraham left for work, his youngest daughter was sitting on his knee eating peanut-butter toast — hours later, three little girls had lost their #father forever. Constable Roland John Graham was not heading into a raid or a specialist operation on 16th June 1997. He was doing the work that had made him a familiar face in #Lurgan: walking the town centre, speaking to local people, and #policing the #community on foot. For fourteen years, John had served in the #RUC #RoyalUlsterConstabulary.☘️🇬🇧 Those who knew him remembered a patient, approachable man who treated people with courtesy regardless of their background. Alongside Reserve #Constable #DavidJohnston, he was one of the officers people recognised. That visibility made them trusted. It also made them #targets. At around 11:45 that morning, the two officers walked through Church Walk, only yards from their station. Two #PIRA Provisional IRA #gunmen approached from behind and opened fire at close range. Both men died where they fell. Doctors ran from a nearby surgery when they heard the shots, but there was nothing they could do. Five children were left without their fathers. John was just 34. His daughters Rebecca, Abigail, and Katie were ten, seven, and two. Only that morning, they had seen him at home in the kitchen — an ordinary family moment that would become their last memory of him alive. His #murder shook more than one family. It came at a fragile point in the peace process and showed how quickly violence could tear through lives, communities, and hopes for a better future. No one has ever been convicted of killing John Graham and David Johnston. BUT THE (CQA) WAS A WELL-KNOWN LURGAN PIRA #HITMAN RESPONSIBLE FOR OVER 10 KILLINGS OF PROTESTANTS AND SECURITY FORCES. His killer proudly protests on the #GarvaghyRoad. Yet John’s legacy is not defined only by the manner of his death. It lives in the people who remembered the respectful #Christian #policeman on their streets, in the family who still carry his absence, and in three daughters who grew up without the father who left home that morning simply to do his duty. Not for recognition --- Not for reward. But because serving others was the work he had chosen. Constable Roland John Graham — husband, father, and community policeman. Remembered with #honour. Lest We Forget. 🌺 ☘️🇬🇧 #RolandJohnGraham #RUC #ConstableGraham #DavidJohnston #LestWeForget #BornAgain
