Vane Quentin Bates

West Point, 1955

Be Thou At Peace

Posted by Carl C Hansen on July 10, 2013:

Quent and I worked together on many elevator and escalator jobs together We were at the World Trade in New York and dozens of other jobs. It was a pleasure working with Quent but spending time with him over dinner was a happy time for me. We could talk about so many things for several hours

Quent taught me much about elevators. But to me Quent exemplified a good and sincere person I admired the way he was dealing with customers and coworkers alike I was always looking forward to the next time I could spend time with Quent. He was the most Godly person that I know and I will miss him very much
