A real gentleman, always a wry smile and a pleasant word. As a boss the best I can say is that he did not act like one. He nevertheless got the job done. Never a nasty word to anyone. As a sixteen year old clueless cadet from West Cumbria people like him made me want to be a copper! Will never forget his wry smile and wit. RIP
