Natalie Cole’s Only Child, Robert Yancy, Dies At 39

Born Robert Adam Yancy on Oct. 14, 1977, he never married. He is survived by Cole’s twin sisters, Timolin and Casey Cole Hooker, and five cousins.

Funeral arrangements were pending. Cole Augustus said Yancy would be laid to rest with his mother and grandfather at Forest Lawn in Glendale, California.

“The dynasty is up in heaven,” said Cole Augustus, who along with her sister runs the Nat King Cole Generation Hope organization that works to keep music in schools.
