HUNDREDS SHOWED UP at the Collymore Rock Church of the Nazarene to attend the funeral of educator Sydney Oscar Arthur yesterday.
The well attended service began at 1:30 p.m., and following a word from Reverend Dr Scoffield Eversley and a prayer by Pastor Allan Tull, the tributes began to flow.
From entertainers such as Richard Stoute and Reverend Errol Davis, who delivered the Word, to representatives of the Barbados Community College (BCC) and family members, they all remembered “Syd” for his kindness, love of sports and his love of people.
The eulogy was delivered by daughter Michelle Arthur and daughter-in-law Germain Arthur. They recalled that the educator was the second of seven children who grew up in Gemswick, St Philip, where he lived a daring childhood. (TG)
