Trisha Faith Graff, age 45, passed away on February 24, 2025. Born in Dallas, TX on May 26, 1979—in the most unconventional way, in the backseat of a Chrysler sedan—Trisha's life was as unique as her beginning. Her vibrant spirit shone early on; she graduated from Air Academy High School in Colorado Springs, CO, and later demonstrated heroic courage by saving her niece's life through timely CPR during a cardiac arrest.

Trisha is survived by her loving children, Zachary Graff-Martinez, Natalie Graff-Martinez, and doghter Lucy; her devoted parents, Joni and Tony Graff; and a host of siblings who shared in her laughter and legacy. Among them are her sisters Lesley Jimmerson and Paul of Plano, Tracey Graff and Marni of Richardson, Stacie Lyles and Stan of Fort Worth, her brother James Graff of Guam, and her sister Christy Parson and Gene Mason of Wylie. She also leaves behind nieces Emily, Amaiya, and Layla, and her nephew Jeremiah, along with the dozens of children whose lives she touched and helped raise.

She was preceded in death by her father Michael Graff; grandmother, Patsy McCormick; uncles, James Edens and David Edens; her Nanny Paula Edens; aunt, Deborah McDaniel; and her cousins, Norma Edens and Jennifer Petree.

In true Trisha fashion, one might imagine her lightening this solemn moment with a touch of humor. As is often said, "a happy family is but an earlier heaven." This sentiment, filled with her characteristic wit, perfectly encapsulates the joy and warmth she brought to everyone around her. Trisha will be remembered for her nurturing nature, creativity, unique humor, and love for a good podcast and true crime.
