Here is a little bit about me. In 1993 I became a NSW Police Widow after my Husband Graham Forbes was taken from us far too soon. Graham was 28 and I was 26 at the time. Too young for this to be happening to us, we were 2 weeks away from celebrating our 3rd wedding anniversary, our lives had just begun. That is were NSW Police Legacy entered my life. Legacy was there to comfort, support and guide me into the next stage of my life. I have connected with other Ladies over the years that have also lost their Husbands and we have all become great friends. Not every one can understand what its like to lose a partner but having Legacy and the Ladies to walk the path with you is a great comfort. We all grieve in different ways, but we all understand each other. Graham was a great friend both to his work mates and the People he meet on the other side of the Law. I even got a card after Graham died from one of the locals and he had written in it "Graham, you were the nicest cop to ever arrest me, until we meet again on the other side of the happy hunting fields." Graham arrested him on firearm offences and if you know Graham, Graham loved anything that went bang. While walking Kokoda I will be remembering Graham (everyones best friend) and all deceased NSW Police Force Officers. As we all say, Police Legacy isn't the sort of club anyone wants to be apart of, but we are thankful that we have them in our lives.
I have been selected to participate in the 2019 NSW Police Legacy Kokoda Trek in remembrance of all deceased NSW Police Force Officers.
I'm raising funds to enable the group of legatees to participate in the trek as well as ensure that the Kokoda Trek program continues for future Police Legatees.
