From Stephen Reeves 20 April 2021 The funeral of Bulls Life Member, Player and Coach Sgt 2nd Class Fred Whitton was very well attended this morning. Family, friends, colleagues and Macarthur Bulls gathered at the Chapel. Such was the large crowd many had to sit outside as all paid their respects to Mrs Joyce Whitton and their daughter Robyn. Mourners travelled from far and wide to be there. Fred enjoyed a good life. He was a loving husband, father, grandfather and great grandfather who worked hard within the community as a dedicated Police Officer. Local Police formed a guard of honour as his family entered the Chapel. I was given the privilege to say a few words on behalf of Freds Colleagues and the Macarthur Bulls. I read from a letter written by Bulls Life Member Alan Stephens who was unable to attend due to a severe chest infection. I also spoke about Fred’s positive influence on many young officers who worked under his supervision. I recorded the names of those who could not make it to the ceremony. Afterwards we met at Freds former watering hole for refreshments and a bite to eat. I am sure stories about the life and times of Frederick Keith Whitton will ring out late into the night. RIP our brother.
FRED is NOT mentioned on the Police Wall of Remembrance *NEED MORE INFO
FURTHER INFORMATION IS NEEDED ABOUT THIS PERSON, THEIR LIFE, THEIR CAREER AND THEIR DEATH.
Thank you Rod Sheraton for passing on my message. As you know I have been chatting with Freds wife Joyce.
Fred won the Best and Fairest with the Bulls in the early years.
Sadly both of his sons Warwick and Perry passed away many years ago.
His daughter Robyn has been a rock in their family.
Fred joined the Cops as a Mounted Police Officer at the Redfern Academy before being transferred to GDs at 22 Division, settling in at Green Valley.
He was a keen fisherman and loved taking mates outside on his boat.
I remember in the 70s we went fishing down south. We saw a buoy and I pulled up a trap that felt like it was full of cement. I finally got it on board and it contained the biggest lobster known to man.
We made a deal that he would have Joyce cook it and we would share the bounty.
Not long after this we went to Fred’s for Robyns 21st birthday. I asked about the lobster he said he would go inside and get it.
I was looking forward to a good feed.
Well he came back with the bleached shell!! and said it was the best lobster he had ever eaten.
At least I had the chance to see its red shell.
Yes it was a great 21st with all the Valley boys present. We drank the place dry.
I think I played a game with Fred in 1972. Tough man.
Plenty of good times with Fred and the boys at the Valley when there were 7 of us stationed there just across from the Valley Pub..
God bless you mate.
RIP.
Wok.

FURTHER INFORMATION IS NEEDED ABOUT THIS PERSON, THEIR LIFE, THEIR CAREER AND THEIR DEATH.
A CONSULTANT company, now known as Halliburton KBR Pty Ltd was commissioned by Shoalhaven City Council in June 2001 to examine options for a Bomaderry/North Nowra link road.
The initial study in 1995 examined five options, two of which were east of the existing West Cambewarra Road, and one utilising the existing West Cambewarra Road alignment.
That study found the West Cambewarra options would not measurably ease the traffic on Illaroo Road.
Councillor Jane Bange has been lobbying for council to develop the existing road reserve, or adopt an option which would be west of the existing West Cambewarra Road.
The main stumbling block against using the existing road reserve, is that the RTA has indicated it would not approve another road feeding into the roundabout at Glendon Motors.
The current study is on hold, waiting for traffic modelling in connection with council’s Nowra/Bomaderry structure plan to be completed.
Bolong road overpass
WHILE the debate raged over where a link should be established between Bomaderry and North Nowra, a traffic policeman came up with a scheme in 1999 to relieve traffic congestion at the Shoalhaven River bridge.
Sergeant Adrian Danslow‘s idea involved an overpass link between Bolong Road and Illaroo Road.
“This would allow the complete removal of traffic lights at the Princes Highway and Illaroo Road intersection, and alleviate the constant stopping and queuing problem” he said.
“Such a construction would mean all pylon supports would be on dry land and not on the river bed, reducing the cost.
However, Shoalhaven City Council’s city services manager, Barry Russell said the suggestion would not solve the problem of increased traffic on Illaroo Road.
“The original link road was aimed at reducing traffic at the Illaroo Road/Princes Highway intersection, and along Illaroo Road,” he said.
Third River crossing
SHOALHAVEN City Mayor Greg Watson believes the RTA should urgently look at constructing a third crossing of the Shoalhaven River.
“The plans the RTA have at the moment are for a complete bypass of Nowra, and that’s 40 years away, and you would be looking at spending $60 to $100 million,” Cr Watson said.
“And a bypass of the town would not solve the traffic problems in North Nowra.
“What we need to be looking at is a bridge to the west of the new bridge.
“That way the two pavements could be merged, and it would be easy to dedicate two lanes to Illaroo Road traffic, removing it from the highway traffic.
“That way you could remove the traffic lights at Illaroo Road.
“The existing bridges carry 46,000 vehicles a day, and capacity is fast running out.
“I wouldn’t suggest placing the additional bridge to the east of the existing structures.
“The acquisition cost of land in the area would be horrendous.”
Illaroo Road’s 15,300 cars a day
STATISTICALLY speaking, Illaroo Road has been carrying far in excess of the recommended traffic load for a residential street.
At last count, in June this year, 15,300 cars used the road every day.
According to the studies done by Mitchell McCotter back in 1995, by 2011 Illaroo Road is expected to be carrying 25,573 vehicles a day.
Again, according to Mitchell McCotter, this figure would only be reduced by about 5000 vehicles a day if any of the West Cambewarra Road options are adopted.
However, an estimate of accidents per million vehicle kilometres in 2011 shows that the West Cambewarra Road options would significantly reduce accident rates from 10.6 if no link is established down to 7.86.
Back in 1995, it was estimated that the West Cambewarra Road options would cost from $5.8 million to $7.7 million, whereas the Shoalhaven City Council preferred route, Narang Road to Pitt Street, North Nowra, would have cost from $4.8 to $7.7 million.

Retired Police Officers Day honours those who have served
Robert Crawford
Shoalhaven Local Area Command Acting Superintendent Joe Thone has paid credit to former officers on Retired Police Officers Day, saying they had set the platform for the future.
Retired officers from across the Shoalhaven were honoured on Thursday as part of the special event.
Fifteen former officers took part in the day, designed to acknowledge and recognise the efforts of former officers.
It is important we recognise the great work each of you have done for our organisation and the contribution and service to the people of NSW, Acting Superintendent Thone said.
We honour your contribution and sacrifice and ongoing legacy of our retired NSW Police officers.
Policing is a dangerous profession, and the risk taken by all our officers as they serve the community daily comes with inherent danger.
Some of our fellow officers have unfortunately paid the ultimate price with significant injury and loss of life.
This loss is a reminder of the sacrifice of all of our officers, both sworn and unsworn.
You set the platform for the future.
Shoalhaven Local Area Command Acting Superintendent Joe Thone.
Acting Superintendent Thone said it didn’t matter what duties officers performed, they had all contributed to making NSW police one of the most progressive and modern law enforcement agencies in the world.
That connection will never leave you, he said. We that remain, and those whom are beginning their police careers are honoured to continue
Funeral location: Innes Garden Memorial Park, Philip Charley Dr, Port Macquarie, NSW
Anyone wishing to send flowers, we ask that you please put that money to a donation to Police Legacy or Soldier On instead. These were organisations that were very close to his heart.
He would also have loved to see his mates with their medals on.

21 July 2018: The only certainty in life is death……We all die one day. Last night my father died. No one can say that he lost the fight cancer may have taken his body, but he never gave up or gave in. One of our proudest moments together was when I graduated from the Police Academy so I thought that was a fitting picture. The death on any parent is an invaluable lasting blow. Because no one ever loves you again like that. Until we meet again! Gone but never forgotten.
Posted to his personal FB page on the day he died. 13 April 2021 @ 8.13am. It was a ‘cut and paste’, or a Share from: Jim Casey 9 April 2021 @ 10.58am Tough times never last, but tough people do.” WEATHERING THE STORMS OF LIFE Life happens, not just for me but for all of us. When the storm has passed, put your energy into rebuilding your life, don’t waste time looking back. And once the storm is over, you won’t remember how you made it through, how you managed to survive. You won’t even be sure whether the storm is really over. But one thing is certain. When you come out of the storm, you won’t be the same person who walked in. That’s what this storm’s all about. Always to believe you the courage and strength to push through this and that tomorrow will be a better day. 16 of his friends either Liked it, Cared or gave a Heart. 2 days later, a friend, Tony Blake, asked Craig: ” Craig, what’s going on with you mate? Have you got support up there? ” The question went unanswered of course.
Megan Here …
It is with much sadness and disbelief I need to let our family and friends know that Craig took his life last night.
He has fought so many Demons and suffered immense mental anguish for so many years. The nightmares, the flashbacks, the anxiety and the depression were exhausting and debilitating and he needed peace.
He decided it was time to check out of this life and while we are heart broken we understand and we wish things were different but unfortunately there is a complete lack of support for our first responders especially after their careers have ended.
He was tired and as much as he loved us he decided it was time to end the pain and finally be at peace.
