I have received notification of the death of Retired Police Sergeant Peter MEE Ps1284 via his Son in Law (Retired Police Officer Kev TOBIN). I will use Kev’s words rather than my own.

His information is as follows:

It is with sadness that I find myself notifying you of the death of my father in law, retired Police Sergeant 1284 Peter Mee, who peacefully passed away at the Kings Mill Hospital at 3:20am on Friday 9th January 2026, aged 94 years. Peter was a NARPO member.

Peter is succeeded by his wife of 70 years Margaret (aka Betty), his daughters Janette and Elizabeth, his grandchildren Emma, Craig, Sarah and Adam and eight great grandchildren.

As a young man, Peter served in the Military Police during his National Service. On completion of his National Service Peter joined the Nottinghamshire County force in 1951 and served as a uniform officer across the County. Peter also served as a Traffic Patrol officer and motorcyclist.

Peter was also a member of the Force Underwater Search Unit.

Peter’s final posting was that of Advanced Driver Trainer at the Force’s Driving School at Epperstone Manor, retiring from there in November 1981.

Following retirement from the Force, Peter was employed as a chauffeur at Calverton’s Wrangler factory, and subsequently worked as a Stable Guard for the Jockey Club. 

Peter was also a keen Bowls player and was the President of Nottinghamshire Bowls Association for a period of time.

Sadly, in his later years Peter suffered from Alzheimer’s and for the past few months was in residential care at the Berry Hill care home. It was from there that Peter was admitted to the KMH on Sunday 4th January 2026, where Peter’s daughters Jan and Liz remained with him until he passed.

There are no funeral arrangements, at this stage it is anticipated the family will have a non-attendance cremation. 

I will notify you should there be any changes to that.

Kind regards,

Kevin Tobin.

Our thoughts are extended to the family at this very sad time.
