Jonathan Charles Mell (9 Jun 1951 - 31 May 2024)

All the best to the family

Thinking of you all and sending love.

Rest in peace Jon

We've been friends with Jon and Mollie for over 20 years since being caravan neighbours at Richmond Caravan Park. Jon was such a lovely man and will be sadly missed. With love and deepest sympathy to Mollie and family.

John and Carol xx

Love you forever Dad <3

I worked with Jon for several years from the 1970’s. He was a good officer and like so many former colleagues have said he was a true gentleman. I always remember Jon and Steve being the best double act of their era and good friends. My condolences to Mollie and family

I first met Jon, when he was posted to Batley, after his initial training.

My condolences to Mollie and family.
I remember Jon being posted to Batley (after initial training) approximately 1972 and attached to the same group as myself, where we often worked together on Beat Patrol for the next 2-3 yrs.

I recall, On one such occasion of working together on nights in Birstall, we had to deal with an alcohol related incident..... resulting in an On the both of us and arrest of the offenders.

At the subsequent court proceedings we received Crown Court/Chief Constable Commendations for the professional manner that we had performed our duties in a violent situation.

I could not have wished for a better brother. There is a massive hole in our lives now that can never be filled. God bless you bro until we meet again. Love Nick xx

I am another lucky enough to have had Jon as my Tutor. Great cop, great bloke. The job and society needs more people like him.
RIP Sgt

Jon, you were one of the best sgts I worked with, you were a true gentleman. The world is worse off without you in it.
RIP SGT

RIP JON you were one of the best

You’ve left the biggest hole in all our hearts, you truly was the bravest and strongest man we knew. Our lives will never be the same. Heaven has gained one amazing angel. Our memories of you will last forever. Sleep tight grandad, we love and miss you so much❤️

Uncle Jon (Jonty to us), you've been taken from this world far too soon. A whole has been left, where a proud,husband,Dad,Grandad & Great Grandad, Uncle & Great Uncle, used to be. Mum will be pleased to see her brother once again, look after each other, God bless, sleep tight, sweet man xx

John was one of the sergeants on my shift, Steve Berry his next door neighbour was my tutor. I started at Batley in 1989 John was a good honest copper and he was liked by everyone

Jon was one of my first sergeants at Holbeck in the early 1980s. An absolute gentleman with a keen sense of humour. Always there to help and advise. Still remembered fondly after 40 years. One of the very best, tragically taken far too soon. Rest easy Jon. Sincere condolences to
Mollie and family.
