The Bakersfield Californian 
Nolen C. Hannah
December 25, 1936 - May 10, 2005

Nolen is at peace in heaven after a courageous battle with cancer. He passed 
away surrounded by his family on May 10, 2005. 

He is survived by his best friend and wife of 50 years, Claudine; son, Rick 
Hannah and his wife, Sandy; daughter, Kim Burchett and her husband, Mike; 
daughter, Regina Menees and her husband, Mike; grandsons, Joshua Hannah and 
his wife, Stephanie; Beau Hannah; Michael Burchett, Jr. and his wife, Erin; 
Nolen Burchett; Kevin Burchett; Eric Menees; granddaughter, Claudine Breanne 
Menees; step-grandsons, Damian and Devin DeLaGarza; brother, Mike Hannah and 
his wife, Jeanie; special son, Garry Gifford; his brothers-in-law; sisters-in-
law; nephews, nieces, cousins and many friends that he loved very much. Nolen 
is preceded in death by his father, Nolen (Sam), his mother, Ruth and his 
brother, Moe Hannah.

Nolen was a hard working man that taught all of us what work ethic meant. He 
loved his job as a truck driver, but decided to retire when he was diagnosed 
with cancer in July 2001. He stayed in shape by riding his bicycle usually 50 
miles a day. He was one of the best fast-pitch softball pitchers in California 
at one time. Nolen was an avid sports fan baseball was his favorite. He loved 
to go antiquing, especially looking for old cigar and cigarette containers. 
Upon retirement Nolen and Claudine traveled throughout the U.S. in their 
motorhome and had some great fun.

Special thanks to LJ Willingham for being a great brother to Nolen and 
spending so much time with him over the last year; to CBCC for your tender 
care; and Optimal Hospice Care for helping Nolen live his last days with 
dignity. 

Funeral services will be at Olive Drive Church, 5500 Olive Drive, in 
Bakersfield, on Saturday, May 14th, at 10:00 a.m., and interment will follow 
at Greenlawn Southwest Cemetery.

In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Olive Drive Church or the
