Killed in the line of duty.
Pc Sharon Beshenivsky, 38, died after being shot in the chest.
Pc Beshenivsky had been a community police officer for two years before becoming a police constable
and lived with her family in a converted barn in Keighley, West Yorkshire.
She had three children and two step-children, and was killed on her youngest daughter's fourth
birthday.
Sharon joined as a police constable on February 7th 2005, she had previously worked for West
Yorkshire Police for a little under two years as a police community support officer.

Sharon completed her basic training and joined Team 5 at Bradford South in May.
Chief Constable Colin Cramphorn said: "She has been described by her inspector and all of her
colleagues as enthusiastic and very positive. Her colleagues remember her particularly for her
infectious laugh. Her shift inspector told me last night he would have liked 30 Sharon's on the
relief.
a good friend
hi kiddo, you will always be in my thoughts. Not a day goes by when i don't think of you. It doesn't get any easier but i know you are with me. Love you lots
night god bless xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
why?
As a Police officer serving for West Yorkshire, I can only ask why? I am an officer from the same team (5) but a different station. I was on the same shift the day that Sharon was killed. A early turn shift. A shift that is routine. A normal day for a cop. Early shift is not like the others. You do the shift, get home in time for the family, spend quality time as you know the next set of lates and nights will be busy. You will be a passing ship in the night to your loved ones come the next few days.
I never knew you as a person Sharon, but people on my team did. Some even joined the force with you and still talk about you. They laugh and cry when they think about you on the dance floor back at police training school..
God bless the children, husbund and family of Sharon. Forever keep them safe.
a true friend
Nearly a year has gone by and the hurt doesn't get any easier. It doesn't help to read what people say. It shouldn't have happened to you or anyone else. My heart aches knowing they took you from your children. I hope you are at peace, I will never be.
Goodnight god bless xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
