Richard was employee of Fram in Stratford until his retirement. He enjoyed golfing in his spare time at the Stratford Municipal Golf Course where he made many friends. He was a kind-hearted soul and very thoughtful of others. He spent the last few years of his life at West Perth Village in Mitchell. The staff there will definitely miss his humour, he liked to joke around with them. We would like to thank the staff at the nursing home for caring for him as well as the Doctors and nurses at Stratford General Hospital. Donations can be made to a charity of one’s choice through the funeral home.

A private family service will be held with entombment in the Garden Mausoleum, Avondale Cemetery. Donations in Richards memory may be made to the charity of one'd choice. Arrangements entrusted to the W.G. Young Funeral Home, 430 Huron Street, Stratford. www.wgyoungfuneralhome.com
