The funeral of PC Andy Boardman from West Mercia Police took place at St Mary’s Church in Kidderminster yesterday.
PC Boardman was aged just 43 when he died suddenly of natural causes. He had served in both West Mercia and West Midlands Police forces as well as in the Royal Marines. He had most recently been based in Kidderminster and the funeral was led by the Revd Tim Williams, who is a volunteer Chaplain to Kidderminster Police Station. The Revd Dick Johnson, lead Chaplain for West Mercia Police preached on Ecclesiastes 3:1-10.
Over 350 people filled St Mary’s Church for the funeral, which was also live streamed on Zoom to around 50 people. It was attended by senior members of both police forces and there was a guard of honour as the coffin came into church.
Please do pray for PC Boardman’s family and friends. May he rest in peace.
