Vicki Yates, wife of Bob Yates has finished her earthly battle with cancer and gone on to be with the Lord on December 8, 2009. We grieve with our CSHA brother Bob and his family, while we at the same time celebrate that Vicki no longer has to struggle with this insidious disease. Bob has been a member of the Coating Society for as long as I can remember and that is somewhere around 30 years. Bob has worked so hard for the CSHA over the years and been one of our best Ambassadors. His attitude, demeanor and activity has been an inspiration for us all. I know you will join me in offering Bob our prayers and any physical support and moral support we can offer.
