The Bakersfield Californian 14 November 2003

Garland Bennett Nelson "Chief" June 24, 1926 - Nov. 12, 2003

A memorial service will be held at Mish Funeral Home, 120 Minner 
Ave., Monday, November 17, at 2:00 p.m., for Chief, beloved father 
and friend.

Chief was born in Pernell, OK, and moved to California where he 
started working for PG&E.  Throughout his career, he met many people 
and was respected and adored by all.  He married Mary Virginia 
Harrelson in 1950 and they had 3 boys, Randy, Gary, and Barry.  His 
passing was sudden and unexpected.  We find comfort in the fact that 
he was not alone, his longtime friend, Paul Tate was with him and for 
that we thank him.

Chief is survived by his sons, Berry and Gary; their spouses Bhavani 
and Edna; and his two grandchildren, Brian and Anthony.

We love you Dad, we're better people for having known you.
