David Graham, best known as a beloved, long-time racing announcer, died Monday, October 28th at age 69.

Graham was especially good at announcing at award ceremonies, where he had a knack for connecting with trophy winners and spectators by accurately describing how much racing meant to them.

God Speed, David Graham.
