Clarence Arthur Reeves
Clarence Arthur Reeves, born January 29, 1887 in Souix Falls, South Dakota. Died June 24, 1966 in Woodlake, California.
I don’t really know a whole lot about Grandpa. I was 9 when he died, and so my memories of him are those of a child. I remember a quiet, distant man, who didn’t seem to relish the flurry of attention a small child brought to his lap. He didn’t push any of us, my cousins and I, away, but I don’t recall him going out of his way to interact with us. Perhaps he didn’t really know how to deal with children, even though he was one of six or more, and he fathered eight (or more) himself. Our family was his second marriage, which occurred on April 15, 1923. Some of my research has turned up a bit of a mystery, and I’m still working on finding out more, if I can.
Throwback Thursday: July, 1958

It’s July, 1958. El Paso, Texas. “Big Jimmie”, as he will come to be called by his family now that he has a “Little Jimmie”, turned 20 this month, and is an airman in the United States Air Force. When I selected the picture for this week’s “Throwback Thursday”, I noticed something I hadn’t seen before. I’ve always seen him in pictures of me, and that gets truer the older I get. Until today, however, I had never noticed my Mother in me. I see her in this one, however. Something in my face reminds me of her, and I wonder why I never noticed it before. I also see many of my other relatives. Or rather I see the common familial features we all tend to have as infants. We might all look very different as we grow up, but you can certainly tell we’re all related in our baby pictures.
Oddly, it reminds me of how I first became aware of Keanu Reeves.
