It is with sadness that I have to inform you of the death on Wednesday 24th May 2023, peacefully at home, of Mrs Maureen ‘Mo’ NICHOLLS, 81 years,  wife of ex D/Supt 174 Jess Nicholls of Heage.  Mo had been living with vascular dementia for several years.

There will be no funeral as the family intend to have a Direct Cremation.
​
Jess who is not well himself suffers from Parkinson’s Disease so their daughter Jo Nicholls of the same address will deal with any communications.  Mo was a wonderful wife and mother.
