Dick was the most helpful and kind person you could hope to meet as a young teacher, new to the job. He was a great benefit to all the School sports teams - even getting the refreshments started on on cold winter days! He also encouraged all the Whitehaven Hockey Club teams - a bright guy who went beyond his regular duty.
He loved his dear wife Chris and I suspected they wouldn't be long apart. Thanks for everything, Dick - you were much appreciated and will be fondly remembered by us all.
Our thoughts are with Tony and family - Dick & Chris will be so missed ... GW
