May May and Brian Forever Rest In Peace.

 


Brian LOOMES

from his FB page:

Your friendly relaxed Civil Funeral Celebrant.

Brian was a Civil Marriage Celebrant for 25 years and is a Justice of the Peace.

I have retired as a Marriage Celebrant, however I am continuing to conduct Funeral Ceremonies and consider myself to be a full time professional celebrant.

As a funeral celebrant I have officiated at funeral and memorial services for many years.

I like to call these “Life Centred Ceremonies” as the whole service including the eulogy must recognize, pay tribute to and celebrate the life of the deceased.

The service should offer comfort, support and a sense of comfort to those who are mourning the loss of someone who was special to them.

I can provide assistance with preparing the service, the eulogy and advice regarding funeral arrangements.

Brian can help you through all aspects and enjoys helping people and prides himself on paying special attention to detail at all times to create a personal ceremony that reflects the feelings, beliefs and personality of the deceased with a totally professional relaxed manner.

please feel free to contact Brian for more information. View the the many thank you messages from satisfied families

Man on harbouring charge

SYDNEY: A South Australian man, described by police as a male prostitute, appeared in Sydney’s Central Court of Petty Sessions yesterday, charged with having harboured a prison escaper, Mr Raymond John Denning.

Mr Margarete Ngatai, 31, unemployed, of Para Hills, South Australia, appeared before Mr Henry, SM, wearing a maroon dress, red high-heel shoes and a bright-red-satin jacket.

He is charged with having knowingly harboured Mr Denning, an escaped prisoner, between April 6 and 21 at Nelson Bay and in Sydney.

Sergeant Brian Loomes, prosecuting, said that Mr Ngatai had accompanied Mr Denning to South Australia where they had lived together for three weeks. They had later returned to NSW.

Mr Ngatai had then returned to South Australia where he had been arrested last Wednesday. He was extradited yesterday to NSW.

Mr J. Bettons, for Mr Ngatai, said he had been told by Mr Ngatai that he had contacted police when he had discovered that the person he was living with was Mr Denning.

Mr Henry refused bail and adjourned the matter for mention to May 8.

Mr Denning is still at large.

Lotto copy swallowed, say police

SYDNEY: A man who falsely claimed for a Lotto win of $1.25 million, had swallowed the evidence – a carbon copy of the coupon – police alleged in Sydney Central Court of Petty Sessions yesterday.

Mr Rayson Light, 37, clerk, of East Sydney, was charged with having attempted to obtain $1.25 million on December 17, 1980, by having pretended he had submitted a valid winning Lotto entry.

He was also charged with having forged a Lotto coupon with intent to defraud, at Darlinghurst, on December 15 and with having uttered a forged coupon on December 17.

He was charged yesterday at Chatswood with having uttered a forged coupon. No pleas were entered.

Sergeant Brian Loomes, prosecuting, alleged that while being interviewed by detectives at Chatswood yesterday morning, Mr Light had stolen and then swallowed a carbon copy of the Lotto coupon relating to his false claim.

Mr G. Penny, for Mr Light, said the matter was still the subject of litigation in the Supreme Court.

He said his client had been born in Canton, China, and had come to Australia in 1975.

Mr R. Henry, SM, allowed him conditional bail.

Sergeant Stone Family Appeal.
On New Year’s day, ( 1 January 2023 ) the Blue Mountains Police Rescue Squad lost one of their most respected rescue operators. Sgt Stone was killed rescuing his son from a rip on the state’s far south coast.
Sergeant Stone was not only a much loved Rescue Operator with the squad but also a General Duties Sergeant with the Blue Mountains Police area Command. From coordinating large scale, multi-agency search and rescue operations to mentoring a junior staff member, he would give freely of his time even if he didn’t have the time to give.
He leaves behind a wife and a young family.
The NSW Police Legacy has set up a fundraising page to assist Sgt Stone’s family.
All funds raised will be used to help ease the financial burden on the family during this difficult time, and provide ongoing support for their future.
Any contribution that you can make is greatly appreciated.
Please click on the below link to make a donation.
Rest easy Stoney.
We will miss you deeply mate.

 

The man who died while rescuing a teenager caught in a rip on the state’s south coast has been identified as a serving NSW Police officer.
Sergeant Peter Stone, aged 44, drowned after rescuing his 14-year-old son at a beach near Narooma on Sunday (1 January 2023).
Sgt Stone attested in December 2000 and was most recently performing duties at Blue Mountains Police Area Command, which included specialist rescue operations.
NSW Police Commissioner Karen Webb extended condolences to Peter’s family and friends.
“Sergeant Stone was well-liked by all those who knew him, and we are not surprised by his selfless actions,” Commissioner Webb said.
“His death is a tragic loss to the NSW Police Force and my thoughts are with Peter’s wife, family, friends and colleagues during this terribly sad time.”
Blue Mountains Police Area Commander, Superintendent Don Faulds, said Peter was exceptional man, a brilliant operator and will be dearly missed.
“Peter had dedicated his professional life to helping the community and had a real passion for rescue operations, particularly here in the rugged mountain terrain,” Supt Faulds said.
“He was always quick – if not first – to offer his help or assistance around the command and his colleagues considered him a mate.

Tragedy as off-duty police officer dies after rescuing son at Narooma beach

The police officer helped his son out of a rip before getting into trouble himself.

An off-duty police officer who died after saving his son, who got into trouble in the water at an unpatrolled beach on the NSW south coast, has been identified.

Peter Stone, 45, went to rescue his 14-year-old son after he got caught in a rip at Bogola Beach, near Narooma, on New Year’s Day.

He was able to help the boy out of the water before he became caught in the rip.

He was pulled from the water unconscious.

Paramedics were called to the beach about 1.30pm and performed CPR on him, but he could not be saved.

The family had been on holiday in the area and the man’s wife was at the beach at the time of the incident.

The man has been identified as a sergeant with the NSW Police Force, attached to the Blue Mountains Police Area Command.

Stone attested in December 2000 and his duties included specialist rescue operations.

NSW Police Commissioner Karen Webb extended condolences to Stone’s family and friends.

“Sergeant Stone was well liked by all those who knew him, and we are not surprised by his selfless actions,” Webb said.

“His death is a tragic loss to the NSW Police Force and my thoughts are with Peter’s wife, family, friends and colleagues during this terribly sad time.”

Blue Mountains Police Area Commander, Superintendent Don Faulds, said Stone would be dearly missed.

“Peter had dedicated his professional life to helping the community and had a real passion for rescue operations, particularly here in the rugged mountain terrain,” Faulds said.

“He was always quick – if not first – to offer his help or assistance around the command and his colleagues considered him a mate.

“As we mourn our mate, we acknowledge the loss of a husband, father and hero.”

Tragic rescue

Acting Inspector Paul Hoyer said the rip was “quite substantial”.

“This is a tragedy that will cut through to the family, his friends, his work mates,” Hoyer told reporters on Monday.

“It’s devastating at this time of the year.”

Hoyer said the South Coast, which is a popular tourist destination, was busy at this time of the year.

He warned people should be careful when heading out on the roads and going to beaches.

“If you do want to go to the beach, swim between the flags at a patrolled beach,” he said.

Local police are investigating the incident and will prepare a report for the coroner.

Any witnesses or those with information about the officer’s death are urged to contact Crime Stoppers.

New South Wales police officer Sergeant Peter Stone remembered as ‘selfless’ hero after drowning while saving son

By Heath Parkes-Hupton

Posted 

A New South Wales police officer — who drowned while saving his son from a rip on the state’s south coast — has been remembered as a “hero” who was skilled in rescue operations.

Sergeant Peter Stone died after being swept out to sea north of Bogola Head, south of Narooma on New Year’s Day.

The 44-year-old had entered the water at a secluded beach to rescue his son, 14, from a strong rip just before 1:30pm.

He managed to push his son to safety but Sergeant Stone did not survive, despite the efforts of lifesavers, who performed CPR.

Sergeant Stone — who was off-duty at the time — joined the force in 2000 and was most recently attached to the Blue Mountains police command, where he performed specialist rescue operations.

New South Wales Police Commissioner Karen Webb offered her condolences to Sergeant Stone’s friends and family.

“Sergeant Stone was well-liked by all those who knew him, and we are not surprised by his selfless actions,” she said.

“His death is a tragic loss to the New South Wales Police Force and my thoughts are with Peter’s wife, family, friends and colleagues during this terribly sad time.”

Blue Mountains police commander Superintendent Don Faulds said Sergeant Stone was considered a mate and hero to his colleagues.

“Peter had dedicated his professional life to helping the community and had a real passion for rescue operations, particularly here in the rugged mountain terrain,” he said.

“He was always quick — if not first — to offer his help or assistance around the command and his colleagues considered him a mate.

“As we mourn our mate, we acknowledge the loss of a husband, father and hero.”

On Monday, Surf Life Saving NSW chief Steven Pearce said Sergeant Stone’s actions had saved his son.

“Heroically, he was able to assist [the boy] out of danger, out of the rip, but he himself remained in the rip and submerged in front of witnesses,” Mr Pearce said.

It has been the busiest summer period for lifesavers in three years, with thousands flocking to New South Wales beaches over the holidays, free of COVID-19 restrictions.

More than 1,000 rescues have been performed so far this summer, according to Surf Life Saving NSW president George Sales.

“His death is a tragic loss to the NSW Police Force and my thoughts are with Peter’s wife, family, friends and colleagues during this terribly sad time.”

Blue Mountains Police Area Commander, Superintendent Don Faulds, said Peter was exceptional man, a brilliant operator and will be dearly missed.

“Peter had dedicated his professional life to helping the community and had a real passion for rescue operations, particularly here in the rugged mountain terrain,” Supt Faulds said.

“He was always quick – if not first – to offer his help or assistance around the command and his colleagues considered him a mate.

Condolences to Roy’s wife, Betty, and their six daughters – Ellen, Alison, Jean, Susan, Megan and Roslyn.

Sergeant Roy McIntyre has left us

My Dad Royston John McIntyre left us yesterday afternoon at 5:30pm.
Mum Betty and all his six daughters Ellen, Alison, Jean, Susan, Megan and Roslyn were with him, and his son-in-law Malcolm.
We had told him Lell was coming home from overseas and Susan would arrive yesterday morning from Gove. He smiled and said “All our daughters will be with us”. He waited for that.
We watched him and held him as he took his last breath, and we saw the colour drain from his face. It was momentary and very peaceful.
We sat with him for a few hours, drank champagne and shared our most vivid memories of him. Together we cried and laughed – the McIntyre way – and enjoyed being a family with him once again.
We observed as the palliative care nurse examined and declared him ( deceased ) then the funeral home people wrapped him up and solemnly took him away.
I like to believe he’s now with his mum Sadie, his beloved sister Heather, his two sons-in-law John Nash and John Tomashek and all his friends who have gone before him. At 91 he was the last one.
He asked for a Police funeral, to be cremated and his ashes spread from the point beyond the Shellharbour boat ramp where the surfers go. A favourite fishing spot.
We don’t have a date yet for the funeral because it depends on the police.
If you wish to attend Dad’s funeral, please personal message or phone one of us for the details.
Rest now peacefully our beautiful Dad – everybody’s favourite. We will always adore you.

Assault on Collector policeman alleged

GOULBURN, Tuesday. — A Queanbeyan man was committed in Goulburn this morning for trial on a charge of having assaulted a policeman.

James Pantos, 26, was charged with having assaulted Constable Roy McIntyre at Collector on May 29 this year.

Mr J. Mullins, for Pantos, said evidence by three witnesses and by Const. McIntyre was “confusing and conflicting”.

Mr R. J. Wingett, SM. said, however, that a prima facie case had been established.

Mr Wingett also committed Roger Vern Hancock, of Queanbeyan, on a charge of having obstructed the law.

Mr B. Gallen, for Hancock, said he had no part in the alleged assault on Const. McIntyre.

Mr Wingett committed him on the charge of having aided the alleged attackers to escape.

He set the date for the trial on both men for September 12 and allowed $200 bail for each man.

WINDY GALE
Another sailor’s ship has set sail.
His friends all knew him as Windy Gale.
A family man who cared for his mates.
As a seaman, he had all that it takes.
Alan served his country but never stood down.
A more compassionate man could not be found.
He was always willing and loyal to a tee,
And he never forgot his love for the sea.
He was a tireless worker who gave his all,
To any ex-service folk within his beck and call.
His tribute to the fallen is quite legendary.
Posting their details so they’re here for posterity.
Alan will be missed by all those who knew him.
But we know to which port, he will be sailing.
All we can do now is pray for fair weather.
Till the time comes when we can all be together.
Bill Charlton.
A mate.

This morning I had a visit from Ray James and Alan Gale who are members of the Vietnam Veterans Association of Australia – Macarthur Sub Branch.
Like myself, both Ray an Alan are also ex NSW Police Officers.
They presented Bujustu with a certificate of appreciation for sponsoring the Vietnam Veterans Macarthur Branch.
I try to do around 7K a year in sponsorships, mainly to Macarthur community groups, schools and sports teams. This is one cause I did not hesitate for a second to sponsor.
