It is with sadness that I report the death of Police Widow Pamela Jean BAKER was was 93yrs and who passed away in a Tunbridge Wells Care Home on the 20th May 2025.

She was the wife of Retired Police Constable Geoffrey Haydn BAKER who served with the Police between 1953 and 1977. Sadly we have no further information relating to this officer nor the date of his death. We do not have details of any next of kin.

Due to the passage of time sadly her funeral has already taken place. It is unlikely I will receive any further information regarding this death.

May she Rest in Eternal Peace.
