North Yorkshire Police said Pc Prior was born in Leeds and ran a successful coffee business before joining the force in May 2022 as a student officer.
More than 800 people gathered at York Minster on Thursday for the full ceremonial funeral of Pc Rosie Prior, who died along with a man last month near Thirsk in North Yorkshire.
The family has invited guests and members of the public to donate to the Police Children’s Charity, which provides support to police families through adversity and was a charity Pc Prior supported.
Mr Forber told the congregation that Pc Prior was the 10th North Yorkshire officer to die in the line of duty since the force was formed in 1974.
The 45-year-old North Yorkshire officer’s cortege was led by a piper and four police horses through the streets of York, which were lined by colleagues and flag-bearers from every force.
