RICHARDS FUNERAL

Hello Everyone

Thought you might like to see this report and photos of Richards funeral and last bus ride.

Although it was a very sad day, it was also a very enjoyable, well attended and apt  send off.  We feel that Richard would have thoroughly approved.

Up to press a total of over £900 has been raised in his memory to be shared between Derby Royal Hospital ICU and Pancreatitis Research.

Best wishes to you all wherever you are.
