Graham Hamilton Love was brought up in Glasgow. He enjoyed medical school in Dundee, before training as a general practitioner in the Stirling area, where he met his future wife and soulmate, Fiona.

Graham took up practice in Glasgow’s Woodside health centre in 1985. He was the very best sort of GP—clinically astute; hard working; kind and compassionate; a “team player”; and equally popular with patients, staff, and colleagues. Sadly, after 33 years in general practice and six months short of retirement, Graham was diagnosed with a brain tumour, which proved unresponsive to treatment.

Outside work he enjoyed most of all being with his family and leaves Fiona, his wife of 35 years; three children (Christopher, Shaun, and Katie, who are all doctors); and his adored grandchildren.

General practitioner (b 1958; q Dundee 1981), died from a glioblastoma on 24 August 2018
