Charlie Weaver’s memorial service at Sunset View on January 12th was a who’s who of Rotarians, Chamber members, and friends. Our well liked Chamber Secretary-Treasurer passed away in December. One of the many people who spoke about Charlie was Bob Coté, a long time friend. Bob, a certified public accountant, will take over Charlie’s accounting business and maintain the distinctive office building at 10504 San Pablo Avenue (at Waldo). Bob has a Web site at www.cotecpa.com and telephone contact can be made at (510) 524-3575. I’ve been told the office will remain a dog friendly place.
