It is with regret that we have to announce the death of a retired Police Officer : Chief Inspector Ronald Dawson, who passed away on the 16th September 2019. He was aged 95 years.
Ronald does not leave a widow.
He joined Durham Constabulary on the 23rd March 1946 and retired from the force on the 14th December 1975, having served at Darlington, Hebburn, Seaham Harbour, Houghton, Annfield Plain, HQ CID, British Police Unit Cyprus, Bishop Auckland, Shildon, Control Room, Serious Incident Squad, he was then seconded to Staffordshire Constabulary and also the Home Office based at Stafford as an instructor and member of the directing team regarding crime prevention training.
There will be no funeral service as Ronald has donated his body to medical science.
Donations have been requested in lieu of flowers to the Salvation Army.
Our thoughts are with the family at this sad time.
