Cal,
Sad news. He was in my Redfern Class 161. May I extend my deepest sympathies and condolences to his immediate and extended family, friends and former colleagues. May he RIP
With Respect
Garry Heskett.
Class 161.
I knew most of the Dapto Highway
Patrol and the General Duties Police Officer’s station at Dapto they were all pleasant to know and I remember Senior Constable Jones most liked to get their lunch at the milkbar nextdoor owner’s Steve & Mari.
Have known Mark since before he was in the job as I arrested him at Woolloomooloo in 75/76 for breaking a man’s arm at a garage he worked at. Turns out the bloke was trying to rob the garage.
Always a larrikin in terms of his demeanour much like myself. Have know him some 50+ years since that date both joining the HWP around the same time. Served with him at city HWP stations the last being Sutherland HWP in the middle nineties before he headed south. A legend of the HWP in my book and certainly a great mate…R.I.P. Mark…CORCO…
Always a good guy to have on our side, lots of stories and memories with Mark, Cal and Peter all my generation.
Sorry for your loss Cal, I know you two were very close. Jonesy was a legend and a burr under the saddle of Inspector Burrage, although I suspect both had enormous respect for one another. Mark was one of life’s true characters and a good man to have your back. RIP Foggo.
