June 12, 1941 � Aug. 6, 2004
George Clifford Graham was born on June 12, 1941, in Mason City, Iowa, and 
went home to be with the Lord on Aug. 6, at his home in Tehachapi. His 
parents Alice and Clair C. Graham and his brother James Archie Graham 
preceded him in death.

George grew up in Bakersfield and graduated from KCUHS (Bakersfield High School). 
He was involved in sports as a team manager and audiovisual assistant. He and 
his family moved to Tehachapi in 1968. He was an active member of the Nazarene 
Church from the beginning. He was a teacher in his church and a willing worker 
in the many needs of the church, such as electrician, custodian, treasurer and 
bus driver. He was secretary of the board of the Signers for Christ. 

The best thing about George is that he was truly a man of God. He lived his 
Christianity, as does his wife Ollie. He was a true example who encouraged those 
around him to be like Christ.

George is survived by his wife, Ollie Fay Graham nee Reaves, and five children, 
daughters Edwina Faith Hubbell, Phyllis Hope Graham and Charity Lee Bartel and 
sons Scott LaDale Graham and Gerald Eugene Graham, and 19 grandchildren. He is 
also survived by seven brothers and sisters, Edith Irene Ynacay, Lovina Romain 
Payton, Robert Clair Graham, Mary Alice Byers, John Brooks Graham, Merlin Orville 
Graham and Tommy Joe Graham, and many nieces and nephews.
