To have made such a nice person as Andrea Coles-Arthur, takes a nice man. So even though we did not know him very well, we know he is someone who would be missed by all who knew him. From across the miles in Trinidad and Tobago, the condolences of The Arthur family, go out to Andrea and all her family in this time of bereavement.
