"Gentleman Jim" Reeves Memorial
This memorial to Gentleman Jim Reeves, a country music star, is located on US 79 near Panola, Texas, and not far from the Louisiana line. It's a nice memorial, although the pedestal strikes me as a little odd. It seems to bear a strong resemblance to an electric razor. The two songs I always associate with Jim Reeves are "Four Walls" and "He'll Have to Go."
