Graham most famous for his iconic role as Ambassador Soval on Star Trek Enterprise has sadly passed away aged 73. Grahams passing was announced by his ex-wife Susan Lavelle on Facebook who said: “It is with deep profound sadness to say that Gary Graham, my ex-husband, amazing actor and father of our beautiful only child together, Haylee Graham, has passed away today.”
Trekcore also tweeted about his passing on January 23rd.
Taking a personal note for a moment here: Garry Graham brought one of my all time favourite Vulcans to life in Star Trek Enterprise, I loved watching the relationship between Captain Archer and Soval go from antagonistic to one of mutual respect as humans proved their strange ability to be emotionally led while being able to embrace cold logic (which confounded Soval most of the time!)
Rest in peace Garry, thank you for bringing one of my favourite Star Trek characters to life.
Graham also appeared during Star Trek Voyager's second season as the Ocampan Tanis in the episode "Cold Fire" who lived with one the mate of the Caretaker - Suspiria, he later appeared as Ragnar in the fan film Star Trek: Of Gods and Men and then finally appeared in the 2015 fan film, Star Trek: Renegades.
Graham had a storied career outside of Trek most notably playing Detective Matthew Sikes in the Alien Nation franchise from 1989 - 1997.
Please join me in offering our condolences to his family at this difficult time.
