Kay Reaves Memoriam

In Loving Memory of Kay Nelson "Dude" Reaves August 16, 1935 - September 20, 2008 "Happy 55th Wedding Anniversary" December 3, 1955 So many memories of good times and hard times, but we held on! I remember cruising around on warm summer evenings, smelling freshly mowed alfalfa and listening to Sundown on KCHJ! One line from Love Me Tender says it all, "Oh, my darling, I love you and I always will!" Til we meet again... Your loving wife, Janice www.bakersfield.com/obits
