Richard was a very kind friend & always ready to offer a helping hand. I'll always remember our shared love of music & attending weekly choir practices. He was so easy to get along with, & chat to on many different topics. He was a true gentleman who will be missed by many.

As another member of CCWalks it was always a pleasure to walk with Richard.
I am sure he is walking through fields of cowslips and bluebell woods.
