Pam, Lucy and Jenny - what a very lovely Daddy you had. Always so gracious and so wonderful to have spent an evening dancing with him in Hampton the summer before last. Such fond memories. I pray that every penny of donations made in his memory will have a bigger impact than any of us could dream or imagine in finding a cure for Parkinsons. With much love, Philippa xxxxxxx

Missing Richard's considerate and effective contribution to Richmond AID as volunteer and trustee.

Mr Andrew Craig

Dick was a loyal and supportive colleague in the Foreign and Commonwealth Office, always approachable and always good company. Our memories of him go back a long way and range from London to Beijing and Hongkong. Later he came to our house in Lindon to give us the benefit of his expert furniture restoration skills. We shall miss him and are very glad to have known him. Susan Pares and Jim Hoare
