      Graham KAY Kimber was born in Grouse Creek, Utah on July 02, 1925, to William C. Kimber and Bertha McCuistion Kimber. He was the 2nd of 5 children, and is survived by two brothers; Bryce Kimber and Merrill Kimber.
      After high school he enlisted in the U.S. Navy during WWII. After discharge, he returned to Nevada where he met his future wife, Margaret Bowen. They had 3 children; 2 boys, Charles (Shirley) and Mike (Karen), and daughter Cyndy (Kim) Oxley. He is survived by his 3 children, 4 grandchildren; Matthew Kimber, Kelsey Kimber, Jessica Enslow, and Alisha Evans, and 10 great-grandchildren.
      Except for his time in the service, Kay lived his entire life in either Northwestern Utah or Northeastern Nevada where he enjoyed meeting and helping others, along with traveling through the country side. He earned a living working in the fuel industry, and in ranching/agriculture. Kay also served as the brand inspector for this part of Nevada for many years. He died on the morning of February 26, 2014, with his long-time companion Muriel Hill by his side. Kay will be missed by all his friends and family.
      Graveside services will be at the Montello, Nevada Cemetery in Montello, Nevada, on Saturday March 08, at 12:00 p.m. In lieu of flowers, please donate in his memory to the VFW, Post 2350, PO Box 1266, Elko, NV 89801, or a charity of choice.
