One thought on “Anthony Francis HOLDEN

  • I remember Tony Holden from the late 70’s when I worked with him at Lidcombe on GDs and he was nicknamed ‘The Farmer’. A very quietly spoken and easy going sergeant back then, who would work his block of 7 night shifts in the truck telling me all about his property near Bathurst, and then head straight up there for his following 5 days off.

    A real gentleman and ‘gentle’ man. RIP.
