We had the privilege of working with Eva (and Gordon) in the Met, and the pictures of her in uniform bring back so many memories! Eva was kind, caring and compassionate, someone you could always go to for help, someone who never let you down. She was a tough cookie when she needed to be - and certainly back in those days, all women officers needed a bit of toughness – but her quiet, calm approach was just as effective. We enjoyed working with her, but much more than that, we always counted her as a friend and were glad to stay in touch even at a distance. We will miss her always, but she will not be forgotten, and when we think of her it will always be with a smile.

I can remember been in hospital as a child n Eva came to visit quite a lot..she gave me her police hat just as I'd had my surgery,, needless to say the boys in blue were none to happy so she came the next day n swopped it..God she had such a roasting..She was my hero and forever will be xxx

Sorry to hear the sad news of Eva’s passing.
Growing up I was so proud to have a cousin in the ‘met’ and showed the article, in the Sweeney annual, around the school when Eva was awarded her bravery award.
Rest in peace Eva

We will miss you Eva, always in our thoughts Rachel, Glen, Larni and Reeni xx

So sad to hear the news that our Aunty Eva has passed away. Last time I saw her was at her Brother Peters (my dads) 70th birthday party joint with my leaving doo emigrating to New Zealand. I have so many fond memories of Eva, all Nans Christmas parties playing cards for pennies, trips to Blackpool with about 20 people in my dads car (the good old days), Eva laughing/ swearing her head off all the way around the grand national fairground ride. I still have my Cindy doll that she bought me from Hamleys when me and Matt came down to stay in London with her and Gordon, my own daughters played with her too. She always gave the best Christmas presents ever when we were kids. I have definitely inherited the Warrilow love of cats and have my little Dexter- he’s so cheeky and clever, I know Eva would love him. I am also lucky that everyday I can spy a little hint of Eva in my own daughter Reeni who is so similar looking with her beautiful strawberry blonde hair (ginger really) and high cheekbones just like Evas.

We will miss you Eva, and I hope you will give my big sister Jane a huge hug and a kiss for me and I hope you are making up for lost time with Nan and Grandad, Wendy and Roger. Always fondly in our thoughts.

I am sorry we will not be able to attend the funeral, and my condolences go out to Gordon and her family, who I know she was so proud of.

Lots of love from Rachel, Glen, Larni and Reeni xxx

Such a lovely lady. Always kind and generous and she thought the world of her family. Have fond memories of family parties and when she was in the police and she used to call at our house to have her hair put in a bun she looked so smart. Although she lived in London she always made an effort to attend family occasions in Stoke. We’ll all miss her. Our thoughts are with Gordon and family at this sad timexxx

So sorry for your loss Gordon xxx
