Honoring Rob Coles: A Tribute to an Extraordinary Life … Katie Avra-Chatfield needs your support for Honoring Rob Coles: A Tribute to an Extraordinary Life

01/03/2025

It’s with deep sadness that we share the passing of one of our own.

Rob was an extremely valued member of our team who quickly turned into family. He was an inspirational leader who truly wanted to help his team grow into their highest potential. On top of his leadership, he was a true friend, always there with a listening ear, a voice of reason, and always had a great sense of humor.

Robs spirit will live on in memories and the uncountable lives he has touched. Rob’s contribution to Elite Air Service and the relationship he built with his coworkers will not be forgotten. His presence in our day to day will be deeply missed by all of us who had the privilege of working alongside him.

While all of us here at Elite will miss him deeply, we ask for extra prayers for his family as they navigate this terrible loss. Someone said “to know Rob was to love Rob” and we couldn’t agree more.

Fly high Rob. Enjoy all the blue skies until we meet again!
