Busman reaches his stop

"It wasn't his destiny to be a bus operator because he would have had to retire from driving a long time ago," Coffey said. "His destiny was to work for 73 years, be a service attendant, and an inspiration to everyone who has ever met him."

"Arthur's there to work, not just show up. He's part of the team. No, scratch that. Arthur is the team."

The MTA has a choir that sings at retirement parties. When Coffey asked Arthur what song he wanted sung at his retirement/100th birthday party, he just smiled.

"A rap song," said the old bus maintenance man who doesn't think he's anything special.
