THE wife of the Sandsend Air France crash victim Arthur Coakley has revealed his laptop and boarding pass have been found among debris from the plane.
Patricia Coakley said she will not be flying out to Brazil, even if her husband's body is identified among those already recovered.
She said she justed wanted to remember him smiling and laughing and said he was a wonderful man.
"We are just in limbo and still waiting for the phone call we will get from the authorities, but don't want.
"We cannot plan anything at this time until we get more news. But I don't want to fly out to Brazil."
Mr Coakley was on board the A330 Airbus Flight 447 which vanished en route from Rio to Paris on 1 June with 228 people on board, including five Britons.
