It was with great sadness that Joy and I heard about Richard's passing. It was only a few months ago that we heard about his illness. It was a blessing that I caught up with him at his brother Henry's funeral very recently. We had made arrangements to catchup, however the good Lord had other ideas. Darren and Mathew you can be very proud of a wonderful father and human being. I treasure the days we had together in Levin and Kuku at our house and the family farm. I have attached a photo at our Grandmother's 75th birthday, Richard on the extreme right and me on the extreme left. You were also present at our wedding over 51 years ago, RIP.

We too are very sad to hear of Richard´s passing. We were friends in the early days and always enjoyed his company. He was a genuinely nice guy. You may remember us Darren and Mathew but it was a long time ago, in the 80s.
Sincere sympathy to you all
