Richard was a valued customer. His humour and upbeat nature were always appreciated and it’s very sad to hear of his loss.

Our sincere condolences to Fiona, his family and friends.

For over thirty years Richard had looked after my company and family interests.
He was old school in the right way, always giving sound and fair advice with a typical off beat sense of Yorkshire humour.His very deep laugh was unique and often had me in stitches as well.
What a big loss he is.
