Thank you for sharing this. I did good until the part where Yates gave tribute to his wife and then thoughts formed, bringing to my mind my age of 81, my Bride of fifty-five years this year and how quickly time flies and how much we owe to those who stood by us for so long. Robert Yates, in all his wisdom, thanked all the right people who made him who he was and he in turn, made others who they are. He was a true inspiration for all of us and a genuine pioneer of the sport.
