LaDesssa Coats Chief, 61, of Rocklin, CA
LaDessa Coats Chief
“daughter of Alma, N.Y. native”
ROCKLIN, California---LaDesssa Coats Chief, 61, of Rocklin, passed away on June 18, 2018, after a long illness.
LaDessa was born in Moscow, Idaho to Durwood and Helen Longfors Coats. Preceded in death by her father and her sister Helmi Coats. Survived by her husband Leonard Chief of Rocklin, California; her mother Helen Henderson of Park Rapids, Minnesota; her brothers, Bob (Carla) Coats of Thorofare, New Jersey and Aarne (Cindy) Coats of Lone Pine, California; and several nieces and nephews.
![]() |
US Air Force Veteran |
She attended Reedley Junior College for two years before enlisting in the US Air Force as an Electronics Technician. She served honorably for four years active duty at Travis Air Force Base in California, followed by nine years in the Air Force Reserves. LaDessa had many temporary duty assignments, including Okinawa, the Philippines, Korea, and Hawaii. While serving she made two close, lifelong friends, Cecelia and Martha.
Upon discharge from active duty in 1982, LaDessa went to work for AT&T as a Testing Technician where she worked until retiring in 2012. Her friend Cecelia also worked with her at AT&T.
She married her soulmate, Leonard Chief, in 2000 and they enjoyed almost two decades of marriage. LaDessa never had children of her own, but deeply loved her nieces and nephews. She enjoyed being a part of their lives through cards, letters, and visits. She was also very protective and supportive of her brothers and could be relied on for comfort at any time.
Like her father before her, LaDessa inherited Myotonia, a form of muscular dystrophy. It slowly took her health in her later years. Fortunately, Leonard was there for her and she remained independent of others and self-reliant.
LaDesssa will always be loved and missed by those whose lives she touched.
Family and friends are invited to attend a memorial service at 11 am on Saturday, November 2, 2019, at the Virgil L. Howard Funeral Home, 118 South Union Street, Shinglehouse, Pa. The Rev. Thomas Isaacson, pastor of Grace Bible Independent Baptist Church, Shinglehouse, will officiate. Burial will be in Maple Grove Cemetery, Shinglehouse, Pa.
Members of the Potter County Honor Guard will accord full military honors on Saturday.
LaDessa’s family has entrusted her care to Kevin J. Dusenbury, funeral director/owner of the Virgil L. Howard Funeral Home, Shinglehouse, Pa.
To express condolences or share a fond memory of LaDessa, please visit www.virgillhowardfuneralhome.com or the funeral home Facebook page, Virgil L. Howard Funeral Home.

Write In Larry Hinrichsen For Potter County Commissioner
A Promotional Booklet for Potter County
Our booklet will say “Welcome to God’s Country, Potter County”. The advertising booklet now puts us on the short “end of the stick” by leaving out “God’s Country”. This is Potter Counties trade mark known all over the country. Our booklet will not leave out the towns of northern Potter County. Where Genesee would be there is now an arrow pointing to Wellsville NY. Shinglehouse is not shown at all on the map as are other smaller towns. Theses towns should be represented as well as the larger towns. This will show shoppers where the smaller towns are in Potter County.
This booklet would be free to the people of Potter County. In the past, this booklet listed more than fifty churches. The present advertising booklet shows one church.
Vote for Larry Hinrichsen for Potter County Commissioner as a write in.
Your Safety
Potter County can use me to protect your back for your safety. Diana and I have always been dedicated to the community fighting for organic food on a national level. In 2004 the “Dam Show” was kicked out of Austin by the people of Austin because of safety issues. We thought they had learned their lesson and gave them the Genesee Environmental Center to use for free. When the event took place they put underage children as their security force. After the show, I attended a meeting in Coudersport. I mentioned that they should have a mature safety force. Their response was they should throw me out “on the double yellow line “ in front of the court house. I left the meeting. Shortly after that the Genesee Natural Foods truck was stolen. Thanks to the Pennsylvania State Police, they recovered the truck. There were two hang man nooses hung on the rear view mirror. Not only did they recover the truck, they kept our company from going out of business. Our employees continued to receive their paychecks from 2005 to 2018. Also the the Potter County D A office looked into the matter which encouraged us to stay in business. This was a political crime.
Vote for Larry Hinrichsen for Potter County Commissioner, a write in.
A Creative Co-Op Plan for a Potter County Park System
We need a county park system that will make money for the general fund and improves the environment for the area. A year round swimming pool of clear mountain spring water would help do this. The quality of life this facility will provide will be enriching. It would encourage people in the high tech world to want to come live here.
Out door camping with great facilities is being sought after by many folks living in the cities. A co-op plan with the state, residents would pay a dollar, non residents, who would stay at the motels, would pay ten dollars. If you stayed at a state park you would receive a discount at this facility and the state would receive a “finders fee”. Let’s work together and make this a reality.
Vote for Larry Hinrichsen for Potter County Commissioner as a write in.
