A heartbroken wife has penned a letter to her husband who took his final breath almost three years after their four-month-old daughter’s death.

David Campbell, a NSW police officer, died on May 8, a day before Mother’s Day, leaving behind his wife Michelle, their two daughters Harper and Meadow, and his stepson Cooper.

His death devastated his family who were still grieving of losing four-month-old Aspen in 2018.

In an open letter to David, Michelle described him as the ‘most gentle, loving and kind daddy’ and said she will miss him forever.

in an open letter to David, Michelle described him as the ‘most gentle, loving and kind daddy’ and said she will miss him forever.

‘I never would have thought my heart would endure this much heartbreak in one lifetime,’ she wrote.

‘My heart is so heavy, so broken. I just can’t fathom how this is real, how you are no longer here on earth.’

Michelle said she was shocked by his sudden death and wished he could see how loved and missed he was already.

‘You and the kids are my whole world I don’t know how I will go on without you by my side, I know I will, have to for the kids but this is not the way it was suppose to be babe, we still had a lifetime together,’ she said.

‘I hope you are at peace now, I hope you have found our Aspen girl and are giving her the biggest hug. Cuddle her for me and tell her Mummy loves her.

‘I love you endlessly babe, I wish my love and the love of your girls could have kept you here with us.’

‘My heart will forever ache for you.’

Stacey Hollands, Michelle’s cousin, launched a GoFundMe page to help the family financially as she braces for the future without her husband.

The community rallied to support the family, with the fundraising campaign so far reaching $15,920 of its $100,000 goal.

David CAMPBELL
The tragedy comes almost three years after the couple lost their four-month-old daughter Aspen in 2018

Tributes have begun pouring in on social media for the father-of-three, who was remembered as a ‘beautiful’ person.

‘My heart is absolutely shattered for you. David was such a beautiful daddy, husband and friend. He will be truly missed. RIP Dave,’ one friend wrote on Michelle’s Instagram page.

‘My heart and soul is broken today. I never ever would have thought one family, one beautiful family could possibly endure so much heartache. I will treasure every single memory of him,’ another person wrote.

Mr Jones was a NSW Police officer and the force is currently offering their support this his family

NSW Police told Daily Mail Australia it is offering support and welfare services to his family.

As a consequence of Les’ long service & role he played in that community, he was viewed in awe by Police Commissioners. Innumerable members of his community, young & old, were the benefactors of positive outcomes after interaction with Police.

Importantly, the positive outcomes facilitated by Les in his role, often led to many life journeys by young Aboriginals, fulfilling their potential & dreams. Les, R.I.P., & be assured you made an amazing difference for your community, particularly the young.

EMERGENCY service workers, police, residents, community groups and students said no to domestic violence during the White Ribbon Day convoy through the Campbelltown and Macquarie Fields regions on Friday.

A convoy of 10 vehicles carrying Campbelltown police, State Emergency Service members, Campbelltown Council staff as well as Burnside, Family and Community Services and Centrelink workers travelled from AB Central in Airds, to Campbelltown TAFE and Macarthur Square to spread the anti-violence message.

A similar convoy carrying groups including Macquarie Fields police travelled from Glenquarie Town Centre and visited Minto Marketplace and Eagle Vale Marketplace.

The two convoys met at Campbelltown Sports Stadium in a show of support before men took the White Ribbon Day oath to say no to violence against women.

Attendees also took part in a tug of war to build comraderie.

Campbelltown police domestic violence officer Sen-Constable Carolynn Walters said the day was excellent and a great opportunity to raise awareness that there is no place in the community for domestic violence and violence against women.

“Everyone came together on the day for this very important issue,’’ she said.

“When we were driving around there were always people there supporting us on the route.’’

Now in its third year, the convoy aims to foster community cohesion, trust and respect for all participants.

Police in Nielsen inquiry cleared

SYDNEY: Three senior policemen have been publicly cleared of corruption allegations raised against them at the Juanita Nielsen inquest.

The NSW Minister for Police, Mr Anderson, told State Parliament yesterday that an internal police inquiry had found no evidence to substantiate allegations made by Mr Jim Anderson, a former associate of Mr Abe Saffron, a Sydney businessman.

Mr Jim Anderson asserted in September last year that he had seen Mr Saffron make cash payments during the 1970s to a number of policemen, including Assistant Police Commissioner Jim Pyne, Detective Sergeant Brian Ballard and a licensing officer, Inspector Keith Dunlop.

The Minister quoted Deputy Commissioner John Perrin who, with Executive Chief Superintendent Russ Sadler, conducted the investigation, as saying, “There is no evidence available to substantiate any of the allegations made by Anderson. . . or that any of the police and former police referred to by him have in any way been guilty of improper conduct”.

The Minister said that since Mr Jim Anderson was “involved in criminal proceedings it would be inappropriate to comment on any detail” of the investigation.

Frederick Keith WHITTON, Fred WHITTON
From Stephen Reeves 20 April 2021 The funeral of Bulls Life Member, Player and Coach Sgt 2nd Class Fred Whitton was very well attended this morning. Family, friends, colleagues and Macarthur Bulls gathered at the Chapel. Such was the large crowd many had to sit outside as all paid their respects to Mrs Joyce Whitton and their daughter Robyn. Mourners travelled from far and wide to be there. Fred enjoyed a good life. He was a loving husband, father, grandfather and great grandfather who worked hard within the community as a dedicated Police Officer. Local Police formed a guard of honour as his family entered the Chapel. I was given the privilege to say a few words on behalf of Freds Colleagues and the Macarthur Bulls. I read from a letter written by Bulls Life Member Alan Stephens who was unable to attend due to a severe chest infection. I also spoke about Fred’s positive influence on many young officers who worked under his supervision. I recorded the names of those who could not make it to the ceremony. Afterwards we met at Freds former watering hole for refreshments and a bite to eat. I am sure stories about the life and times of Frederick Keith Whitton will ring out late into the night. RIP our brother.

WHITTON, Frederick Keith | Funeral Notices | Sydney | My Tributes


 

Thank you Rod Sheraton for passing on my message. As you know I have been chatting with Freds wife Joyce.
Fred won the Best and Fairest with the Bulls in the early years.
Sadly both of his sons Warwick and Perry passed away many years ago.
His daughter Robyn has been a rock in their family.
Fred joined the Cops as a Mounted Police Officer at the Redfern Academy before being transferred to GDs at 22 Division, settling in at Green Valley.
He was a keen fisherman and loved taking mates outside on his boat.
I remember in the 70s we went fishing down south. We saw a buoy and I pulled up a trap that felt like it was full of cement. I finally got it on board and it contained the biggest lobster known to man.
We made a deal that he would have Joyce cook it and we would share the bounty.
Not long after this we went to Fred’s for Robyns 21st birthday. I asked about the lobster he said he would go inside and get it.
I was looking forward to a good feed.
Well he came back with the bleached shell!! and said it was the best lobster he had ever eaten.
At least I had the chance to see its red shell.
Yes it was a great 21st with all the Valley boys present. We drank the place dry.
I think I played a game with Fred in 1972. Tough man.
Plenty of good times with Fred and the boys at the Valley when there were 7 of us stationed there just across from the Valley Pub..
God bless you mate.
RIP.
Wok.
