Youth, 17, found in Ausable River
By Debora VAN
BRENK, Sun Media, Tues., January 15, 2008
The body of a missing Crediton teenager has been found in the
Ausable River.
Provincial police say their underwater search and recovery unit
found the body of 17-year-old Ryan
VANVALKENGOED about 12: 30 p.m.
yesterday.
VANVALKENGOED was reported missing Friday night when he didn't
return home from a friend's house in Crediton. It would ordinarily
be a 10-minute walk.
His hat was found Saturday between his friend's house and a bridge
spanning the Ausable River.
He was found in the river "just south of the bridge," said Ontario
Provincial
Police
Const. Joanna
VAN
MIERLO.
Police launched a search by boat, air and land -- including a
diver team and dog-rescue teams -- in a systematic search for
the popular teen.
The cause of death has yet to be determined.
Police are warning people to steer clear of both riverbanks and
waterways.
Meanwhile, William
YATES, a London man last seen a week ago near
his home near the Thames River, is still missing. Searchers have
turned up no sign of him and police continue to investigate.
His disappearance is believed unrelated to a body found in the
woods in East London on Sunday. Hikers found the body, which
had been in the woods for some time.
London police have confirmed the body is that of a male but weren't
releasing more information until an autopsy, scheduled for yesterday,
could be completed.

Missing teacher's body identified
Bill YATES had gone missing January 8 from his home that backs
onto the Thames River.
By Joe BELANGER, Sun Media, Mon., March 17, 2008
Bill YATES was a teacher of children, a mentor of teachers and
a volunteer who cared for strangers.
That's how
YATES, 61, was remembered yesterday after London police
confirmed it was his body found Saturday in the Thames River
near the Richmond Street bridge.
YATES had been missing from his Hamilton Road home, which backs
onto the Thames, since January 8, when the river was running
fast and high.
"As a teacher, he was a loving and compassionate man, a real
pro," said Bruce
TRAVNICEK, who taught with
YATES at C.C. Carrothers
school for three years in the late 1990s and remained Friends
after YATES retired.
"He had such a great way of showing us (young teachers) how to
show the children we cared."
The cause of his death has not been determined, police said,
although a post mortem was to be conducted yesterday.
London police and a firefighter marine unit pulled
YATES' body
from the river just east of the bridge where Richmond Street
turns into Carfrae Crescent about 12: 30 p.m.
Friends searched the area for days after
YATES disappeared and
even posted a reward.
TRAVNICEK's wife, Wendy, said she's hoping to convert any money
collected for the reward fund into a trust for a student bursary
in YATES's memory.
YATES taught Wendy
TRAVNICEK, 47, when she was a Grade 7 student
at Woodland Heights school.
"He was an amazing, wonderful man," she said.
"And he was an amazing teacher. We all knew he cared about us."
Bruce TRAVNICEK said
YATES knew which children were having trouble
and how to help, even it meant bringing some extra food, handing
it to them discreetly.
"If one of his students had trouble, he'd spend hours searching
for the right book, going through row after row of books in the
library, to find just the right book to help them read," Bruce
TRAVNICEK said.
"As a teacher, he would look at the big picture."
YATES, a private man who lived alone, was discovered missing
when he failed to show up for his regular shift delivering Meals
on Wheels.
YATES was an animal enthusiast and spent a lot of his time training
his own dogs and judging at shows.
It was a shared love of dogs and cats that led to a bond between
YATES and Arthur
SKINNER, 64, a registered practical nurse who
met YATES soon after moving to London in the early 1980s.
"Bill was honest, you could trust him and I admired that. He
was a kind, gentle spirit. And there was great depth to his mind.
He was very intelligent. I'm going to miss him."

Foul play not suspected
By Free Press Staff, Tues., March 18, 2008
Foul play is not suspected in the death of a retired London teacher
whose body was found in the Thames River during the weekend,
police said.
An autopsy did not determine the cause of death of Bill
YATES,
who went missing from his Hamilton Road home January 8. The coroner
could not be reached for comment. It's not known if additional
tests are being done to determine how
YATES died. London police
said cause of death was "undetermined, (however) no foul play
is suspected."

YATES,
William

Of London, missing since January 8, 2008 was found Saturday,

of Point Edward, Ontario. Loved brother of Judy (Ken)

YOUNG, Dawn (Joe)
SEWELL, John (Suzanne)
YATES, Cathy
YATES and Jeff (Bev)
YATES.
Predeceased by his brother Stephen
YATES (1996.) Also survived by many nieces and nephews. Bill
was born on November 26, 1946 and grew up in Point Edward, Ontario
where he attended Bridgeview Public School. Following Bridgeview
he attended Northern Collegiate in Sarnia where he graduated
with an honors certificate in 1965. He then moved to London and
completed his teacher's training in 1966. He went on to complete
a B.A. at the University of Western Ontario in 1980 as a part
time student. Bill was an excellent elementary school teacher
and taught in London at Woodland Heights, Wilton Grove, Aberdeen
and Tweedsmuir Public Schools from 1966 to 1996, when he retired.
Bill had many other interests but his passion was dogs and obedience
training. He had a number of dogs over the years (Kelly, Pal,
Guynan, Thorn) and most recently Scout who were as devoted to
him as he was to them. Bill became interested in dogs and training
soon after he arrived in London. He and Pal competed in Obedience
trials beginning in the 1970's. Bill went on to become a member
of the Canadian Kennel Club and became an obedience trial judge
in 1986. The family would like to thank the many Friends, neighbours
and former colleagues who have offered their prayers and concern
during Bill's disappearance. The volunteers who searched for
him, the police search as well as the fire and rescue, was much
appreciated. Friends may call at the McFarlane and Roberts Funeral
Home, 2240 Wharncliffe Rd., S., Lambeth 519-652-2020 on Friday
