A decorated World War II veteran who died this month with no living relatives is being honored by strangers around the world thanks to an unlikely friendship with a young woman determined to give him a hero's farewell. He died April 12 at age 97, two years after the passing of Rosie, his wife of more than 60 years. It fell on eager ears, and when Graham is laid to rest on Friday it's expected to be standing-room only. When Rosie died two years ago, Graham's grief was such that Regan feared he would quickly follow. Regan recently moved to North Carolina for work but will be back in New York for Graham's service.
