My deepest condolences to Alex, Megan and all the family. Your father visited our store often and spoke highly of you both almost every time he was here. I had such regard for him. He was always such a gentleman. We would talk about everything on his visits. He was here just a few days before he passed and was telling me about chauffeuring. I always loved all the stories he told me. It sounds like he enjoyed life. I am truly going to miss his visits. He was a man of so much knowledge. I hope your memories will help you through this difficult time.
Rest Easy Art, you will be missed here at Cabot Timber Mart in Clarenville

God always gives his hardest battles to his strongest people. I am deeply sorry for your loss Alex, Art was a great man who created an even better one. You are a Coffey, and with that comes strength, and pride, something nobody or anything can take from you. Never second guess what a special human being you are Alex, remember that who you are was embedded from your father.
I love you buddy, always.
Condolences to the family. Alex, you’ve got some big shoes to fill. Your Dad was a great man, very accomplished. He supported Sam in a big way when they were studying their Civil Technology program together.
RIP Art.

Hey there Bud! Our last conversation was my birthday, just a few short days after yours. You said that you weren’t feeling the best, and said that’s what happens when you get older…I remember saying wow you are only a few years older than me and you are not giving me much to look forward to! I was joking Art! You said I was the first person to say happy birthday to you this year and how much you appreciated it. It is ironic how all the memories of our friendship come rushing back when this happens. Things we said we should make plans to do together and never got around to it. Only goes to show how important it is to seize the moment. You were there for me on occasions when I needed you. I appreciated that more than you will ever know. I hope I told you. God speed my friend. May you be pain free and go four wheeling with the angels and ride your new bike because the weather will always allow you to.
May your family and friends find peace in knowing that you loved them all unconditionally with your entire heart and you were so proud of them. You also loved the cat! Lol
Our heartfelt condolences to all the Coffey family at this difficult time. Art was always such a friendly man. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
