Sharon Mellor obituary

My wife, Sharon Mellor, who has died of an aneurysm aged 65, was a lecturer and justice of the peace who never lost her interest in the law.Sharon was born in Battersea, south-west London, to Patricia (nee Harmon) and Peter MacQuarrie, a North Sea oil pipeline worker. At Rowan Road girls’ school in Mitcham she did not have much interest in academic work, but always raved about the outward adventure and equestrian courses. As a 16-year-old she worked as an office junior for Cadbury Schweppe
