Darryl Roger BLANCHE Death Notice – | Newcastle Herald

June 1973: Former Liverpool Police Officer – Senior Constable Darryl R. Blanch ( # 10649 ) and Probationary Constable S. C. Bird ( # 15174 ) pursued three men travelling in a stolen motor vehicle at Lansdowne.

Shots were exchanged during the subsequent high speed chase, one of which penetrated the windscreen of the Police vehicle only inches away from the head of Senior Constable Blanch.

After abandoning the stolen vehicle at Chullora, the offenders were arrested later by other members of the Police Force.

I had been in the Cadets for a year when I first met Darryl in 1961. We were both 16 yr old cadets at VKG.

Darryl’s family lived on a dairy farm at Millers Forrest near East Maitland and I used to travel up there with him every couple of weekends. He drove a Datsun 180B and I can still remember the number being DRB-018.

Darryl married Merv Taylor’s (President of the Police Assoc in those days) daughter and they lived near Bankstown aerodrome.

We went our own ways and I lost contact with him. I can’t get to your funeral Darryl but will livestream it. RIP Darryl.

Richard Cordwell

Darryl was one of those honest hard working police I have ever worked with pity he doesn’t get some type of police funeral with a couple of current police at his funeral.

I first came across him when he was in the coopers then use to compete with him driving down Woodville road when he was at Merrylands STP.

I spent many years on accident squad 4 working with him and did many records of interviews.

He would ring me early in the morning on a call out and then turn up with siren and blue light at the front door.

We started the AIS at Daceyville and when I rejoined I walked into a police station on my first day and here is Darryl at the front counter with a welcome sadly missed.

Darryl BLANCH was the first shift supervisor I met when I started at Auburn Police Station in 1990 two years prior to his retirement an absolute true gentleman and fantastic supervisor with a wealth of knowledge from his years in the job and Accident Investigation.

Darryl it was a pleasure to have met and served with you I still have fond memories mate.

May you RIP my friend.

Police established an elite investigation team in a new bid to cut the State’s road toll. The new squad will investigate serious road accidents in the meticulous way homicide detectives investigate murders. Part of the squad’s method of operation is to completely seal off accident scenes so that vehicles involved are not removed before vital evidence is gathered. May 27, 1982.
