Bartman passed away last week after losing his battle with meningitis. He was 46.
Speaking at his memorial on Tuesday, Kadodia said Bartman’s death is not only a loss to Maritzburg, but for football at large.
“We always saw Arthur as a Maritzburg role model. In football and in representing the city. While he was present at the club he did his job diligently and he is a big loss to football,” said Kadodia.
Bartman will be laid to rest in East London on Saturday.
