Donna and Family: I only got to know Richard through the Legion, however, he left me the impression he was the type of person who would go the extra mile for his Air Cadets. Someone you could always count on.
My sincerest condolences for your loss.

Richard will be greatly missed, especially for the time and commitment he provided to the Royal Canadian Air Cadet movement. His smile brightened a room and his compassion for mentoring those involved in cadets impacted everyone he took under his wing.

Donna, Ryan and Meghan, Brenda and I would like to offer sincerest condolences at this very difficult time. I (Don) meet Rick at the armories' in 1966. Rick served for a short time in The Essex and Kent Scottish Regiment and then moved on to serve with 294 Air Cadet Squadron where he rose in rank to become a Major. Rick was always an inspiration to all who knew him. He was fun to be with and we spent a lot of non military hours together playing cards and going on road trips. Unfortunately we can not bring those days back, but we have very good memories and he will be missed. RIP friend!

Great guy and was a real inspiration to many of us in Cadets, probably kept loads of us out of trouble. He took us all camping and let us get up to all kinds of adventures. Great sense of humour and a contagious laugh. For those that knew his parachuting story it would bring many to tears. I think he gave us all second and third chances. Definitely will be well remembered.
