Richard Fred Moate (16 Jul 1948 - 5 Feb 2021)

Dearest Richard. A true Gentleman.
It was a pleasure to call you and Heather our friends on and off the skeet ranges.
Your kindness, like you, will always be remembered.
May you now Rest in Peace.
With love Alan and Gail xxx

Richard was such a wonderful driving instructor. He was so kind and always so willing to go out of his way to help.
Such sad news.

Rest easy, Richard.

The best driving instructor and the kindest man. I’m pleased we spoke not too long ago via Facebook.
Rest in peace Mr Moate xx

Will miss you walking by my gate and talking to my dogs R I P Richard xx

We were so sorry that you lost your battle Richard. We have fond memories from many years ago and also more recent ones. Thinking of Heather and family. R.I.P. Richard.

Richard we have been friends ever since we met in 1975 when I joined the Firm you were at.
The guys and You especially made me so welcome. I'll always be grateful for that.
You extended that friendship to my family soon after and we have enjoyed always the lovely and funny times we've had with You and Heather, Jaime and Martin.
We were always impressed with the way you could design and make things, as you did for us many times.
We will think of you always and remember your great sense of humour and fun.
Rest in peace
Dave and Lynne.

In Richard's Memory. He will be missed.

I was so sorry to hear of Richard's passing. I count Richard among one of my dearest friends. I am truly heartbroken and will miss him. When he traveled to the States he and Heather would go out of their way and drive many hours just to visit us. God Speed Richard and may God have mercy on Heather and the family.

In memory of Richard, a pleasure to have known you.

Always fondly remembered

We are still shocked and saddened by the loss of a truly lovely man taken way too soon. I am so pleased that we got to see you more in recent years doing what you love doing. Such a calming demeanour with your softly spoken voice but great fun too; a real pleasure to be around. We are heartbroken for Heather, Jaime and Martin and join them in their sadness. I’m sure we all agree what a great privilege it is to have known and loved you. Special memories❤️xx
