And you gave him a good send off at OWston mate well done.
At the Friday evening session in the pub we toasted to Richard at least twice and everyone bemoaned his passing.

I saw the service sheet for Richards funeral and wondered if the message from Richards brother could be reproduced on here ?

So sad to hear the awful news over the weekend.

Had my first NVA amp in the early 90s, but only got to meet Richard in person last year.

Can’t add very much to what has already been said by those who knew him well. It was a real pleasure to finally meeting Richard in person and we ended up chatting about everything from his passions, hifi, music, travels, martial arts and sadly, recent health issues. He was so very warm and generous with his time and knowledge.

My condolences to Nadia and family and friends.

We can all do it. Keep talking and posting here about Richard, his design philosophy and methods. Keep using his gear and even buy more of it. I for one will be doing more diy using his ideas and maybe some of my own thrown in.

Yes. 'Wish You Were Here' and 'Nimrod' (Enigma Variations).
Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way...The time has gone, The song is over, Thought I'd something more to say...

Thanks, Dave. Pink Floyd Wish You Were Here, great song to associate with him.
