The daughter of a well-respected coach driver who was “always encouraging you to do your best” has paid tribute to her late father.
William Coles of Cottenham, known as ‘John’ to many, first helped his family bakery business, delivering bread to villagers after leaving school at around 14 to 15-years-old.
But John, who died at the age of 91, may be most remembered for his time as a coach driver for different firms in and around his home village, whether that was driving football fans or schoolchildren.
