Nicola and Fiona, Rest In Peace

They put their lives at risk doing their job,

Shot down in cold blood by a deranged yob.

Going about their duties,to them a normal day,

Not knowing that in front of them disaster lay.

Fiona Bone was 32 years old,a W.P.C. for 5 years.

Calm,collected and professional leaving friends,family and colleagues in tears.

Nicola Hughes,23 years old,bubbly,always smiling at the end of a shift,

Leaving friends,family and colleagues in an emotive rift.

An example of how dangerous a police officer's duties can be,

Our protective shield against crime displaying courage and bravery.

Throughout our nation there will be grief and sorrow,

For two brave W.P.C's for whom there will be no tomorrow.

 

Nicola and Fiona may you Rest In Peace,

You put your lives on the line as front line police.

Amen to the poem and to the two posts shown.
Evil is out there and every generation seems to
suffer. It is a timely reminder amongst the
recent angst over police actions elsewhere that
the bottom line in duty can be sudden death.
