His next of kin is his daughter Ms Kelly Farrell.
Mick served mainly in Derby, in CID and latterly with the Regional Crime Squad at Nottingham. He retired on medical ill health following an accident in about 1994. He was only diagnosed with Cancer in August this year but it spread very quickly. There will be no funeral as Mick wanted a Direct Cremation. However if anyone would like to make a donation, Mick nominated the Derbyshire Branch of NARPO via Thomas Ryde, Funeral Directors Bridge St., Belper.

Members will remember Bridget from when she was the Enquiry Office Clerk at Matlock Police Station from 1986 to 1989. A private family funeral will take place at a woodland burial at the farm on a date to be arranged. Sean Murphy (Secretary) |
