A good man and wonderful cook has been taken from us - I will remember the fellowship and good times as I continue to cook using Richard's Recipe Book. My thoughts are with you Stephanie at this time.

Hi Stephanie,
We were sorry to hear of Richard´s passing and send our condolences to you and the family.

We have fond memories of the times we shared with our "gang" when the kids were little, going back to when Desi and Lance were at Kindy.

Thinking of you all, kindest regards,
Gail and Doug.

My deepest condolences to Steph and the family. Richard was a special work friend and we had a lot of fun over the years including some special trips around the South Pacific and PNG. Always had a new dish or ingredient to try, with a smile and a laugh. Special man! Paul Harrington, Port Ludlow, Washington, USA
