Vet to Vet Tennessee

Rev. Robert (Bob) Hatley, age 78, of Madisonville, passed away 0130. Monday, April 27, 2020 at U.T. Medical Center.

Bob was a graduate of Madisonville High School. He retired from M & M Mars Company and was a member of Notchey Creek Baptist Church, Tellico Masonic Lodge # 80, Vonore O.E.S. Chapter 383, and Monroe County DAV #93. He was a Veteran of the U.S. Army, having served in the Vietnan War. He was one of the original 23 members of Legacy Peer Support Group, Secretary of Vet to Vet Tennessee and the Knoxville Regional Veterans Mental Health Council, Court Coordinator and Mentor of the Monroe County Veterans Court. He loved helping the veteran’s community.

Bob’s selflessness, generosity, and dedication to others had an impact on Monroe County, Vet to Vet Tennessee, and anyone who knew him. We have been blessed in life to be in the presence of a strong male role model. Although he continued to struggle with the memories of his service in Vietnam, he never once lost focus on his comrades.  God blessed us knowing you brother.  Welcome Home!  We will never forget you.

The James H. Quillen VA Medical Center had reports from sister VA facilities that Veterans have received calls from someone claiming to work for VA. The person states they are going to the Veteran’s home to give them a COVID-19 (Corona Virus) shot. THESE CALLS ARE NOT FROM VA. Some are also requesting bank account information.

At this time, a shot for COVID-19 does not exist. VA will NEVER ask you for your bank account information over the phone. This has been referred to the VA police, but we wanted you to be aware. Please let your loved ones know if they are not on social media.
