Morissette said. "Graham's special spirit is what kept me going. He gave me the energy and the to fight with him." In 1997, when he was 8 years old, Graham passed away.
by how Graham lived his life caring about others, Morissette the nonprofit Grahamtastic Connection in his honor. The organization provides free technology — including computers, iPads, and robots — to children cancer and other serious illnesses.

The real magic happens between classes, when they're walking down the hallway with their friends, by robot, their weekend and their favorite foods and other things. It's great technology that really gives children the feeling of control, when their world is maybe control.
"Every time I can help a child in need, I feel Graham is smiling down." Morissette said, "I believe that Graham's lives on in the work that I do. And I'm and privileged to be able to do it in his honor."
