Sad news - Rick passed away
 

Good afternoon dear friends and members of CR
I just read this note in our chat-box on CR:
This is Rick's granddaughter Chloe. I am so sorry to have to say but Rick passed away on Monday. He was at home and it was so peaceful.

Rick's funeral is at 11am on Monday 14th August 2017 at Thornhill Crematorium (Wenallt Chapel), Thornhill Road, Rhiwbina, Cardiff, CF14 9UA.

My thoughts and prayers are with Christine, family and friends.... No words can express my sadness and feelings, lost with Rick another true and great friend

Dierk

The saddest of days. It is a comfort that he died peacefully. RIP my friend.
