Hi Cath.

Did Tommy work at Heinz, and also serve in the Special Constabulary?

he did mick...did you know him?

Comment by: Mick on 7th February 2011 at 01:14

I did indeed, Catherine. I was stationed at Pemberton Police Office, and got to know him well when he came to perform his duties as a Special. A true gentleman.

Afraid I've no photos Catherine. I used to bump into Tommy a lot, and was sad to hear he was no longer with us.

Hi Mick...I contacted a sergeant at Wigan police and told them our Tommy had died. They did us a great honour in sending an officer to the church in order to show their respects and offer their condolences.

He was very well liked, Bill.

I can still see our Tommy and Jack Halliwell my stepdad, stood together proudly wearing their police uniforms.
That is...when they weren't off fishing somewhere!

Hi I remember them well, sorry to hear about Tommy was speaking to him a couple of years ago in the Brocket
