Vane Quentin Bates

West Point, 1955

Be Thou At Peace

Posted by Dick Auer on June 30, 2013:

There was only one person who didn't know what a great businessman, a great husband, a great father, a generous and gracious donor to special organizations, a great inspiration to those around him and a great friend he was. That person was Quent himself. He lived for others, his interests were in others, his giving of himself selflessly came natural to him and I loved him for these special attributes. We were friends for many many years and i only wish there were more to come. I'll miss Quent with all my heart. Dick Auer
