Vane Quentin Bates

West Point, 1955

Be Thou At Peace

Posted by John Feagin on June 24, 2013:

Thank you for all you have given each of us, the Class of '55, West Point and our Country. Since the beginning you have been our moral compass and inspired us. Your marriage, your Family, your friendship - even your skiing - made us all the better.

I loved reviewing the pictures and the Class History but most of all was how you two met and then the lovely note you posted Anna. We will always be together and we will try to live up to the examples you and Quent set as we soldier on in sadness.

with love The Feagin family
