I was deeply saddened to hear of Richard´s passing today. I worked closely with Richard over many years and have many fond memories of him. He was always so thoughtful and generous whether it was sending gifts to my children when they were born or baking me a Christmas cake his thoughtfulness was always appreciated. I always admired the love he had for his family and how fondly he spoke of Heather and Rachael. He was a true gentleman and will be missed greatly. Rest in peace Richard.

Rest in eternal Peace now Richard with your dear Heather Frances.
You were such an intelligent helpful and handsome gentleman. Your friendly assistance and great achievements as a Fire Protection Engineer at Beca were always noted by those who worked with you, and You WILL always be remembered.
Your legacy lives on in your daughter Rachael.
