         Brunton, William Whitman  84 years old, died peacefully in his sleep on May 28, 2014. Bill was born in Newburgh, New York and spent his childhood summers in Vermont in a small town called Jamaica, on property that has been in his family for almost one hundred years. His sister Beverley said they would skip stones in the spring all the way down the road to the local store and back. Bill married Dorothy "Dot," while in the Army and later moved to San Diego where he worked tirelessly for the Pacific Bell Phone Company for 30 years, first as a lineman, then as a foreman. He fathered and took care of six children whom enjoyed many road trips and outings to the beach. He coached their baseball teams and was a Boy Scout leader. Bill gave many years of dedicated service to the Knight's of Columbus and Alhambra. He cooked many a dinner for their functions, called Bingo and arranged dozens of bus trips for the organization. He had many friends and thoroughly enjoyed spending time with them at all the gatherings they participated in. One of his favorite hobbies was fishing, and he loved to be on or near the water. He was a good man, who never held a grudge and only wanted everyone to be happy and get along together. He had a great sense of humor and loved to tell jokes. Bill was a very devoted husband through tough times and good and took exceptional care of his wife for the 60 years they were married. He is survived by his wife Dot, sons Bill Jr (daughter-in-law Regina), Matt, Steve (and fiancee Cheryl), and Scott, and daughters Kathleen Converse (son-in-law Michael) and Susie Holland. Bill also has seven grandchildren, Donald Holland, Robert Holland, Stephanie Converse, Jessica Converse, Mikey Converse, Joey Converse and baby Wyatt Brunton and one great grandson, Caleb Holland. We will miss his laughter and smile always. May God rest his soul. These words were written on Bill's Great Grandfather's Remembrance cards "Oh, father, thy gentle voice is hushed, Thy warm, true heart is still; And on thy pale and peaceful face Is resting death's cold chill. Thy hands are clasped upon thy breast, We have kissed thy marble brow, And in our aching hearts we know We have no father now." Eternal rest grant unto, Bill, O Lord. And let perpetual light shine upon him. May he rest in peace. Amen. May his soul and the souls of all the faithfully departed, through the mercy of God, Rest in Peace. Amen. "I have fought a good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith; Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, shall give me at the day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that love his appearing."

         Eggleston, Warren (Warrington) Anderson  departed this life on December 15, 2009 after being involved in a fatal, single car accident. He was the first of four children born to Warrington and Lucille Eggleston, November 5, 1929, Newburgh, New York. "Sonny," as he, was called by his beloved family, was the consummate, protective older brother who delighted in sharing good times with his siblings. During high school he excelled in every major sport - basketball, football and softball. Despite racial adversity, he triumphed as Newburgh’s "Boy Wonder." In his post high school days with Glenn Hines independent basketball team, he traveled up and down the east coast; he even played against the infamous globetrotters. Sonny served in the armed services during the Korean conflict. He was attached to the Special Services’ unit; he played basketball and football throughout Germany until he was slated to be sent to Korea as a sharpshooter. (This uncanny sight later made him the official locator of lost items). As a result, his wife affectionately dubbed him "Sharp Eye". Warren attended Central State University on the GI Bill, he played football and served as team statistician. He was a member of Omega Psi Phi Fraternity and "spoke softly but carried a big stick" as Dean of Pledges at Central State. At CSU, he majored in Physical Education and was initially hired as an elementary Physical Education teacher in Cleveland, Ohio. To his great joy, he was later assigned to a number of junior and senior high schools where he was able to coach basketball, football and track. He was so proud of his 1967 and 1970 state championship track teams. Eventually Warren was promoted to assistant principal; he served thousands of Cleveland youth for 16 years with diligence, firmness and love. He was viewed as a beacon of strength and decisiveness at his most challenging assignment, Collinwood High School. "War," as he was fondly called, married his beloved "Sweetie" (Barbara), June 20, 1958. From this union two wonderful sons, Warrington (Skip) and Gregory were born. War reveled in being "father/coach" as the boys became immersed in baseball, football and track. Coaching prowess continued as he introduced his grandchildren to his sports "wisdom." Warren accepted Christ at an early age in Newburgh. After moving to Cleveland, he joined Olivet Institutional Baptist Church. In 1983, he was ordained as a Deacon, under the pastorate of the Reverend Dr. Otis Moss, Jr. He was deeply honored to serve his Lord and Master and the Olivet family in this position. He fulfilled his duties faithfully and lovingly-and always with a warm, magnetic smile. He participated in special spiritual moments with his fellow deacons, particularly his birthday mate, Hoover Thomas. Another one of his responsibilities at Olivet was that of Recreational Director. As such, he was the founder of the OIBC Track Meet and was ably assisted by his long-time neighbor and track official co-worker, Wilma Hairston. This venture was highly acclaimed throughout the Cleveland community as a successful "running for Christ" event. War also especially enjoyed playing bridge with his wife. He took pleasure in attending national tournaments and accruing master points while a member of the Cleveland Congress of Bridge Clubs. Notably, a highlight of his career in athletics was his experience as a track official for high schools and colleges in Ohio. This culminated in his selection as a track official at the 1996 Olympics in Atlanta, Georgia. He continued to participate as a track official well into his 70’s because of his sincere desire to help young people achieve. To this end, he spent 10 years writing a biographical account of his experiences-his momentary downfalls, his ongoing challenges, his inevitable triumphs. It will become a legacy for his grandchildren and other youth who strive to overcome adversity. Warren is remembered by all for that ingratiating, ever-present smile, his jovial, upbeat nature. He demonstrated constant, unswerving support for his wife in any and all of her undertakings. He was always there for "Sweetie". Warren enjoyed traveling to over 50 countries in six continents throughout his marriage; he loved seeing the places on television where he had toured. He also had a great love for fishing; he had several Canadian fishing jaunts with his Mason brother. As a youngster in New York, he actually began fishing with string and paper clips; he flirted with danger while swimming alongside the dayliners in the Hudson River; and he engaged in wild, fun-filled pranks with his adventuresome brothers, William and Skippy and lovingly taunted his sister, Elaine. Many people have said in simple terms, "he was just a good man with a good heart" – a wonderful husband, a marvelous father and grandfather, and cherished friend. He leaves to mourn his beloved wife, Barbara; his cherished sons: Warrington (Patrice), Dayton, Ohio; Gregory (Genita), Indianapolis, Indiana; his specially loved grandchildren: Gregory, Jr., Genelle, Warrington IV, Courtney; his devoted brothers: William (Mary), Newburgh, New York; Wellington (Ann), Norfolk, Virginia; devoted sister, Elaine (A.G.), Newburgh, New York; nieces, nephews, cousins, and a host of other relatives and friends.

Throughout his life, Bob pursued his love of sports both as a participant and a fan. He was a member of the U.S. Army's skeet shooting team, raced speedboats, played ice hockey, baseball, and football, skied, bowled and golfed. He stood by his favorite teams, the New York Mets, Rangers, and Giants. He was a member of the Anderson County Club for 25 years and Osiris Country Club in Walden for 20 years.

Brandon Gale of the U.S. Marine Corps.; his daughter, Dianne Thomaris with her husband, Glenn and children, Bobby and Marianne; his sisters, Betty, Tessie and Barbara and many nieces, nephews, cousins and friends in Newburgh, Anderson and Elmira, N.Y. He was preceded in death by his parents, his brothers Leo, Joseph, Otto, Eddie, Charlie, Ernie and George; his sisters Eleanor and Marie and his beloved Springer Spaniels, Scooty and Reggie. Bob took great pride in his grandchildren, sharing his fishing and shooting traditions with them, following them in sports, and traveling to be with them. He is especially proud of Brandon's success and accomplishments in his Marine Service and loved to watch Bobby and Marianne pursue their sports activities. Seeing them so involved in pursuits that were important to him gave him great pleasure. The family extends heartfelt gratitude to Bob's friends, relatives, and neighbors who helped during his illness and special thanks to Bob's Best Man of long ago and in this time of need.

      Nelbach, Arthur  -   I have just learned that Art Nelbach, star NFA track athlete in the late 1940's, passed away in January 1997 as the result of an accident outside of his home in Vails Gate, NY. He attended Lafayette College and was a USMC helicopter pilot in Viet Nam.
    Posted by Domenick Colotti 48  I was Art's best man at his second wedding.  He was cutting down a tree on his property, when it fell on him and hit him on his head. He was always the reckless one from when we were together at NFA to when he was a Marine pilot.  Once, when stationed in California, (probably El  Toro), he decided to drop in on his folks by landing at Stewart.  In doing so, he flew over Beacon across the Hudson, upside down, probably 500 to 1000 feet up over Broadway.  Great guy.  We all miss him.  His father used to own the Bear Shop on Broadway and he was always borrowing cars without his Dad knowing it.  Once, in Algebra class, we saw squirts of water flying by.  It was Art, using one of his Dad's grease guns. The teacher never saw it, although after class, he must have wondered where all the water on the floor came from. Another time, he was snow blowing ice off  of Winona Lake and the riding blower went through the ice and he was able to get back to shore.  Days later, he went out on a boat and dove down and retrieved the blower.  Actually, his home was in Cornwall, about a mile from the Vail's Gate intersection.     Born Aug. 5, 1930  -  Died   Jan. 14, 1997

            Vincent, Benjamin Donald  - A light went out at 4:00 pm on Tuesday, August 26, 2014. Benny Vincent, a man who knew that two's company but three's not a crowd, it's a party, has passed away. He was 83 years old and in everyone's life who knew him there is now a Benny-sized hole. A native of Newburgh, New York, Benny moved his family to Hollywood, Florida in 1964 and never looked back. He loved the beach, he loved the weather, he loved the chance to make new friends, even if only for a lovely afternoon of cocktails. With his second wife, Nancy, he raised three boys, Thomas, David, Mark, and suffered the loss of a fourth, Michael. He had the ability to turn an otherwise ordinary moment into a celebration and he leaves us all with a rich library of memories and stories simply because he was there. He is survived by his brother Richard and wife Chris, and his family: Nancy Vincent, his sons:Thomas and partner Jennifer De Pinto, David and wife Lisa Tait, Mark and wife Susanna Yurick, and his grandchildren: Emilia Vincent, Michael Vincent, Sydney Vincent, and Niko Vincent. It would be an egregious omission to leave out his cousin and sidekick George DiDio, so we won't.

She was born March 19, 1930 in Yonkers, N.Y., daughter of the late William and Sarah C. Wallace. Mona was a 1951 graduate of Union University School of Nursing at Albany Hospital.

In retirement, they traveled in their RV throughout the continental United States, missing only two states. They cruised to the non-continental states of Hawaii and Alaska, where the second picture was taken. Together they enjoyed golf, tennis, bird watching, and dancing. Always looking to learn something new, Mona and Don participated in 15 Elderhostel programs. A true and loyal friend, Mona maintained lifelong friendships with high school friends, her fellow nursing students and neighbors. Mona was the beloved mother of Donna (Jerry) Septon, David (Carol) Shattuck and Daniel Shattuck. In her later years, she especially enjoyed spending time with her grandchildren, Kate (Daniel) Walter, Kendra Shattuck, Eric Eidens, and Arlene Gilbert and by her brother, William Wallace.

      Yates, Robert F.  82, died unexpectedly of a stroke on Sunday, May 27, 2012. Born in Endicott, N.Y. on May 19, 1930 to Morris Yates and Ethlyn Watrous Yates, Robert, or "Bob" as many friends knew him, lived in Saratoga Springs for the past 50 years. Bob had a mischievous twinkle in his eye and loved to regale his friends with stories, jokes, and puns. He loved to travel, go to the opera, play Sudoku, send messages on the ham radio, work in his woodshop, and, in his later years, to create beautiful stained-glass windows. He spent many wonderful summers with his family at his camp at Schroon Lake in the Adirondacks Bob had a long career in medicine, and was known to many in Saratoga Springs as a pediatrician who made house calls. He earned a BA degree from Colgate University in 1952, and an M.D. from Albany Medical College in 1956. In 1957, he was drafted into the military Medical Corps as a Captain in the capacity of a General Medical Officer and was stationed in Heidelberg, Germany from 1957 through 1960. Upon his return, Bob completed his Pediatric Residency at Albany Medical Center and went into private practice in Saratoga Springs. He joined Dr. Joseph Mintzer at 221 Lake Avenue, forming the practice of Mintzer & Yates, and was later joined by Dr. Charles Richman. He truly loved taking care of the children of Saratoga and watching them grow to raise their own families. He then became Deputy Director of Medical Services at the NYS Office of Mental Retardation and Developmental Disabilities (OMRDD) from 1989 through 1993. In 1993, Bob had the pleasure of going back to private practice at Saratoga Medical Associates, working with his daughter, Laura Yates LeCours, who followed in his footsteps and became a pediatrician. He finished his career as a part time physician working several years at C.W.I. During his career, Dr. Yates had professional responsibilities at Saratoga Hospital acting as President of the Medical Staff, Chairman of the Medical Department, Chairman of the Pediatric Department for two years, and Chair of the Quality Assurance committee in addition to service on the executive committee for 10 years. He is survived by his wife of 58 years, Ruth Dempsey Yates. Married in 1954, Bob and Ruth were best friends and soul mates. Together, they raised four children, Stephen Yates (Jane), Martin Yates (Diane Vatne), Laura LeCours (Alan), and Douglas Yates (Sharon Burkett). Bob is survived by his sister, Marion Stephens (Donald) of Caldwell, Texas. His brother, Edward Yates (Ann and then Sandy), predeceased him. He was a proud grandfather of nine, Dan LeCours (Amanda), Katie Dram? (Mamadou), Alex Yates, Emily Yates, Viena Yates, Anna Yates, Andrew Yates, John Yates, and Lydia Yates. Bob was an active member of the Saratoga Springs United Methodist Church, volunteering on many committees and in leadership capacities. He was a member of the Board of Trustees, Pastor Parish Committee, and acted as a member of Building Committee when the church moved from the downtown Washington Street location to its present location at 175 Fifth Avenue. Bob was also a community leader in many other ways. While his children were growing up, he was very active with the Boy Scouts, acting as a Scout Master and encouraging his sons as they rose through the ranks. They have carried on the scouting tradition with their children. He was also a member of the Board of the Historical Society of Saratoga Springs for six years, acting as president for two years. He was on the Board of Trustees for the Salvation Army and the Board of Trustees for the Saratoga Boy Scouts. He was loved deeply by his family and will be missed beyond measure. A memorial service celebrating his life will be held at 3:00 p.m. on Friday, June 1, 2012 at the Saratoga Springs United Methodist Church at 175 Fifth Avenue. It will be followed by a reception at the church. The family asks that in lieu of flowers, donations be made to the Saratoga Springs United Methodist Church Missions Fund or Heifer International. Arrangements are under the direction of the William J. Burke & Sons/Bussing & Cunniff Funeral Homes. Online remembrances may be made at www.burkefuneralhome.com
