Coach Graves Wife

[stephenPE]

Opal has passed away at the age of 96. : At 18 she taught in a one room school house grades 1-8th. She married Ray in 1942 and lived in Philly where he played Pro football. They were married 72 years until he passed. I would link the obit. but my stupid system blocks obits now...........

RIP Mrs. Graves. For those of us who remember what Coach, and Mrs.Graves meant to Florida football, this is sad news. On a happier note, both she and Ray were blessed with long and fruitful lives and I believe both will be long remembered.

I was blessed to attend football games all through the "Silver Sixties".

As a lifelong Gator, I was sad when Coach Graves passed and I am sad again today.
