Kevin Anthony Grisham
August 22, 1960 - August 4, 2021
Kevin Anthony Grisham, 60 of Bakersfield, California, died on August 04, 2021, in Bakersfield, California. Kevin was born to Larry Joe Grisham and Carolyn Ruth Shields on August 22, 1960 in Bakersfield, California. He is survived by Jai Grisham, CA; two sons, Chad and Chase (Amy); his three granddaughters, Aurora, Chloe and Sophie; his father, Larry Joe Grisham; two siblings, Jami Georges and Steven (Patty); two nieces, Ellie Lloyd and Tessa Georges. Kevin was preceded in death by his mother, Carolyn, brother-in-law Dean Georges, and his best friend Eddie Terrell. Kevin grew up in Rosedale and had many lifelong friends. He served in the Army from 1978-1981 and then worked for Lloyd Drilling out in the "oil patch." After being injured he changed professions becoming an optician for Drs. DeHart and German, and then Dr. Williams when he was forced into retirement due to Parkinson's disease. He was a proud sports dad for both his sons and enjoyed coaching and/or attending practices and games for travel ball, little league and high school baseball. He cherished those times the most. We ask that his friends and family pick up a chocolate milkshake and toast to his memory. Graveside services will be held 10:30 AM Monday, August 23rd, 2021 at Visalia District Cemetery, 1300 W Goshen Ave, Visalia. Services have been entrusted to Salser & Dillard Funeral Chapel.
