When I attended Marist Brothers Parramatta (in Victoria Road) in the ’50s, I seem to remember a Tony Boys (with fair hair) who may have been in the same class (I’m 75).
If Tony is the same person, I’m very sorry to hear he has died.
Please accept my deep condolences.

Prior to joining the NSWPF – Bruce SHIELS worked for the Department of Local Government, as a Clerk, on probation as of 1 April 1952 until his permanent position in June 1953 being advertised.
He then joined the Police in 1958.
He just made the required weight by drinking jugs of water and over a pound of bananas prior to weigh in.
He worked at Waverley on the motor bikes and at Bondi where he made detectives.
At age 32 Bruce survived 4 operations for an aggressive cancer.
He had great support from his police family.
He was considered a miracle survivor and was transferred from the Pillage Squad to light duties at the CIB.
He remained for there for many years, back on full duties with the “Breakers”. The cancer experience made him very conscious of his own mortality. He loved to entertain and be entertained. Simple things in life gave him great pleasure. Family BBQs and days out on the golf course especially with the Police Golf Club were of great importance to him. Bruce served from 1 11 58 till 17. 1 .90. At retirement he was in charge of the South West Drug Squad. Bruce passed away in 20001 after yet another 4 year battle with lung cancer. A lot of older police and retirees may remember him as a great poet and a born entertainer at many Police functions. He was honoured by a Police presence at his funeral. Not a day goes by when he is not missed.
One of Bruces’ poems:
Carolyn Shiels ( 21 Oct 2015
As promised, I have published one of Dads ‘works’. After reading the biography of Darcy – I kind of felt a bit of empathy for him…. but I know that Dad never did…..
THE GREY GREY WALLS OF GAOL…. by Det Sgt Bruce SHIELS (dec) …..a Tribute to Darcy Dugan
(sung to the tune of the Green Green Grass of Home)
The old Rozelle don’t look the same, now that Darcy’s lost the game, Because to meet him was half the CIB. Down the stairs he came with his knees shakin’ Hands on head, his poor heart breakin’ Again, he’ll touch the Grey Grey Walls of Gaol.
Yes they’ll all come to meet him. And his favourite screws will greet him Though again, he’ll touch the Grey Grey Walls of Gaol.
Now the Wayside is still standing, though the walls are cracked and dry And the Reverend Ted has lost his best hymn singer But at Grafton there’s a choir that’s classy Fifteen screws and our dear Darcy Again, he’ll touch the Grey Grey Walls of Gaol.
Now the big holdups are finished, and the city’s nice and still and the druggies go to church with Reverend Ted. But with Darcy in… there’s no supply there No pot ….and no LSD there While Darcy’s in the Grey Grey Walls of Gaol.
Yes they’ll all come to meet him And his favourite screws will greet him Though again, he’ll touch the Grey Grey Walls of Gaol.
When Darcy woke and looked around him He saw that 50 Police had found him and realised – dead set – he wasn’t dreamin’
But there’s a lawyer….and a dear old Padre On and on….. they’ll try for Darcy… But still ..he’ll touch the Grey Grey Walls of Gaol.
Yes they’ll all come to meet him, His favourite screws will greet him I hope they bury him Behind the Walls of Gaol.

Barry, whilst still living in England, joined the Royal Air Force before emigrating to Australia with his wife, Linda, aboard the ship TV Fairstar from Southhampton.
At the time of arriving in Australia, on the 14 December 1969, he was employed in the Catering field as a Cook & Waiter.
They moved to a unit at 131 John St, Cabramatta, NSW
Barry Served in the RAF with Units: RAF White Waltham ( 1964 – 1969 ) & RAF Hereford ( 1964 – 1969 ) sub unit 114.
He held the Rank of SAC & Service # F4276992
His Australian Army Regimental # 2147621 – Commissioned on 24 August 1974 as 2nd Lieutenant. Baz left the Army Reserve holding the Rank of Captain.
Baz and Linda met as 15 year olds and have been together every since.
Barry was a member of the Royal Australian Corps of Military Police prior to joining the NSWPF.
During his career with NSWPF, Baz was a member of the TRG ( Tactical Response Group ) and trained many Police in the use of the ( then ) new long batons ( which replaced the small rubber ‘trungens’ that we used to be issued.
He was instrumental on the inception of ‘simunition’ training, the change over from the Smith & Wesson .38 to the Glock Pistol, Mandatory OS ( Officer Survival ) tactics and training and the full time Weapons Unit.
He was also called, many times, to give ‘expert’ evidence in relation to various ‘shooting’ incidents in relation to Police related shooting incidents.
After his Policing career he joined Corrective Services in the Court system for a short time before finally giving up work to enjoy a more ‘relaxing’ life.
Prior to the invention of Facebook, Barry was an on-line member of the Policing Forum, the TBL ( or the Thin Blue Line ) – which is still an active Policing Forum which hangs off my main site – www.AustralianPolice.com.au
Barry, or ‘Barry7’, as he was known on TBL, joined TBL on 26 April 2005 – a few years before FB was ‘a thing’.
He posted over 5,760 posts on that Forum and his knowledge and expertise shone through with the way he helped other former, serving and ‘wannabe’ Police.
Barry, and others like him, put himself forward to bring vast improvements to Policing and Police safety – for the benefit of us all, and the benefit of Police who will come well and truly after we ( the old guard ) have all left this earth.
His comments and insights, on TBL, are still part of the enduring legacy that he leaves behind – for others to read and be guided & learn by.
There are, no doubt, Police who possibly owe their life to Baz – for the training he provided those people over many years.
It can never be said that Baz did not stand before an angry man – for he was always the one to ‘lead’ from the Front and By Example when the battles began and the ‘shit’ hit the fan.
The 1985 Bathurst Bikie Riots are just one example of this Bullmastiff standing up to the Rotweiler.
Eventually, when Facebook came along, communications were becoming more instantaneous and, eventually, Barry moved from the Forum style of on-line communications to the FB style, and thus – hadn’t made a Post on the TBL Forum since 23 October 2016 – but his 5,760 Posts remain.
Lots have met Barry, many more haven’t. He was always up for a chat and always up for a coffee crunch at Campbelltown when it was arranged.
Baz was always boasting about his visits to NZ to visit family ‘over the ditch’ and how extremely proud he was of his kids and grandkids. That deep love and affection is quite obvious in all the photos he has shared with us over the years.
He and Linda recently moved up the coast, from Camden, to be closer to their daughter.
Barely time for any of them to settle down in their new digs, when the old boy went into the Hospital system for a relatively minor heart operation on Tuesday but was met with complications from which he was not to recover and, sadly, passed away with Linda and family by his side on Wednesday – never to have regained consciousness again.
Baz, you contributed to this world. You did not leave empty handed but holding the love and affection of a great tribe of people who loved and put their trust in you.
My friend, our friend – may you Forever Rest In Peace.

Hi everyone. I would like to introduce myself before I continue. I am Barry Lewis’s 3rd daughter, the gorgeous one and the one who was of course the apple of her daddies eye ( I also got his tongue in cheek wit as you can by now probably tell).
On behalf of my family I would like to say thank you. Your condolences and lovely words have carried our family through this very tough time. My dad would have been so proud that you have all stepped up to support us.
We are so totally overwhelmed with the outpouring of grief that has been displayed and want to reach out to each and every one of you and offer comfort.
My dad was my hero, he is the example that I have held every man I have ever met up to and most have failed. He was my dad my friend, my inspiration and my strength and through this page I have been able to see that he was also these things to so many more people.
To all of you I offer my condolences for your loss, I never realised the hole that he would be leaving in your lives.
Thank you for being a part of his life. He valued every one of you and was so proud of his work here on this page.

The formality of it alll went out the window when Mr Vice stood up to toast the Queen. He raised a very unsteady glass and declared “God save the Queen and all those who sail in Her!” Major Hoban sat down and there was an unnerving silence in the room. I didn’t know what to do. Then the sound of hobnail boots clearly marching towards the entrance and in burst two immaculately presented MP Corporals who quietly and ever so efficiently whisked away Mr Vice. I never saw him again…… Ever. with Barry Lewis.

Always supportive, we have always been a Team.When I look back I realise now that I was a mere callow youth in the formative years of our relationship, but with her help and guidance I gradually matured into Manhood and Fatherhood.She may only be 4 foot 11 inches tall, but she is a force to be reckoned with when roused. I couldn’t imagine life without her. My Rock, my life, my love. I would do it all over again and never change a thing. XXX
For the love of family. Barry Lewis September 23, 2013 · Me and my three Grandsons, Nick (17), Chris (14) and Jack (6). Barry Lewis November 28, 2014 · Happy, carefree days painting with my beautiful Granddaughter Sam Jolly
