Constable Jo-Ann Jennings was nearly 21 when she joined the regular force
after serving as a special constable in her home town of Benfleet for
almost two years. Her first posting was to Grays, where she met her responsibilities
with vigour and determination, soon becoming a respected and valued member
of the relief.
She welcomed the challenge of a transfer to Corringham in the autumn
of 1989, and was readily accepted by her new colleagues. Jo-Ann Jennings
was enthusiastically settling in at her new station when tragedy struck.
During the early hours of Remembrance Sunday 1989, she was passenger
in a police car which was involved in an unexplained accident in Brentwood
Road, Orsett. So severe were her injuries that she died shortly afterwards.
Jo-Ann's Jennings colleagues remember her warmth, sincerity, strong sense
of commitment, and the obvious pride with which she served the community.
Police Constable 3267.
