Richard was my first and much wanted son born on September 30th 1967, the day that radio 1 started.
I went into labour on the evening of Friday 29th and he came into the world at 10 minutes past
midnight weighing in at 8lbs. 8ozs. I (like all women) remember the pain to this day but went ahead
to give birth to his brother Derren, just over two years later.
Richard was a hyperactive and sensitive child which was not helped by his fathers general attitude
towards him, developing into something much more serious later which I cannot go into here.
I did my best to encourage Richard in whatever he became interested in, first of all when he joined
the cubs where he stayed for about two years and later in judo where he gained an orange belt.
At about eight years of age he started swimming and this became a real passion as he got better and
better, eventually becoming good enough to win many medals swimming first of all for the Borough of
Harrow then for the County of Middlesex.
I got very involved with it as well, as I was the one getting up early in the morning to drive him
to the pool for training and taking him to various galas and events or at least to the coach or
train station when he had to go with the team to tournaments further away. It was hard work but I
was very proud of him and just happy to see him involved in something that he enjoyed so much.
He left school at the age of sixteen and trained as a baker which he thoroughly enjoyed despite
having to start very early in the morning.
He was a great collector of videos and DVDs as well as CDs, particularly anything by his favourite
band 'New Order' which went well with his other great passion, playing the drums,(the neighbours
loved it really!!!).
He formed various bands playing locally right up until less than a year before he died.
When he was about 18 years old he developed the first signs of O.C.D. which caused him great
distress. It seemed to get a bit better and he later met Jackie. They were very happy together
finally getting married in 2000 when he was 33.
It was so good to see him so happy on his wedding day because we all hoped that it would help him to
get over the O.C.D. which had returned a couple of years earlier, unfortunately this was not to be.
There were times when the real Richard still shone through showing the terrific and often zaney
sense of humour that he had, with a gift for making people laugh.
The main problem with Richard's O.C.D. was the fact that it caused him to worry about everything,
constantly needing reassurance but being unable to believe it when it was given.
Finally when Safeway stores (where he worked) were taken over by Morrisons he convinced himself that
he was about to be made redundant, no matter how many times he was assured that this was not the
case he refused to believe it.
Not long after this he walked out of the house and was found three days later having taken his own
life in a derelict building less than a mile from where he lived.
He had been convinced that he had lost all his friends and had nothing left to live for. Over 200
people came to the service at the crematorium and many tears were shed that day proving too late
that he was about as wrong as he could be.
God bless you Rick and I am sure you are at peace now.
I wish I could have given you a better life my darling son xxxxxx
The song is Blue Monday by New Order ( Richard's Favourite song )
The Lead singer took his own life

The time has come for me to release you
Free to fly high above this world.
Where the flowers forever bloom &
The ultimate love fills the space.
In my attempt to try to keep you
I've only been able to hold the anger
Not realizing that I have to let you go
I can't hold on.
I'll no more keep your pain alive,
I won't try to hold you down.
I'll let you fly on to higher ground.
My grief has left a numbness,
as if this isn't real
You are in my heart forever,
but I know I have to let you be free.
Soar high.
Laugh as a child that feels the joy of the moment.
Play among the rivers flowing through the hills.
Roam the fields of daisies.
Fly to the top of the mountains.
With closed eyes, I see you among the flowers,
High above the clouds.
Your presence blows through me with the breeze.
Your smile beams down on through the sun.
The full moon brings the light of your laughter to my mind.
And the Butterfly in all its splendour reminds me
of your beauty and freedom now.
Leaving your love for me lingering in my world.
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ ~♥x♥~ Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ ~♥x♥~ Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ ~♥x♥~ Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ ~♥x♥~ Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ

Last night at bedtime I looked out
to say goodnight to you
and out the window through the clouds
a star came shining through...
It sparkled and it twinkled
like a precious diamond stone
it looked as if it winked at me
and I felt less alone...
On earth we can see starlight
even if the star has gone
and though you are not with me
your light still does shine on...
So though I cannot kiss your face
or hug you oh so tight
I'll look to Heaven, see a star
and whisper your goodnight...
LOTS OF LOVE SANDY XXXXXXXXXXXXX

Always watching over us as we go our way,
Never taking their eyes from us a minute of the day,
Guardians who are here to keep us from all harm
Each time we face danger, darkness, or alarm,
Looking out for us through each trial we face,
Sent straight from heaven, by His mercy, love, and grace.
❤

YOU BELONG WITH ME.....
EVERY DAY GETS EVEN HARDER TO BARE
WHEN I LOOK AROUND AND YOU ARE NOT THERE
WHO SAID THAT IN TIME IT GETS EASY IT IS SUCH A LIE
THEY COULD NOT HAVE KNOWN WHAT IT WAS LIKE TO HAVE A CHILD DIE
I TRY TO LIVE ON THE MEMORIES THAT YOU LEFT BEHIND
FOR ME TO KEEP
SOME NIGHTS IT IS LIKE I AM GOING OUT OF MY MIND I CANNOT SLEEP
I AM SO TIRED OF HAVING TO PRETEND THAT ALL IS WELL
WHEN I AM STILL LIVING THIS NIGHMARE IT A LIVING HELL
JUST WHEN I THINK THAT NOTHING CAN HURT ME AGAIN
I REMEMBER JUST WHAT IT IS LIKE LIVING WITH THE PAIN
NEVER FOR A MOMENT WOULD I HAVE THOUGHT LIFE COULD GET SO BAD
I CANNOT GO ON EXPLAINING TO OTHERS WHY I FEEL SO SAD
IT IS SOME THING THAT HURTS SO DEEP INSIDE MY BROKEN HEART
NEVER REALLY UNDERSTANDING WHY WE HAVE TO BE APART
THE TEARS ARE ENDLESS THOSE I CANNOT SOME DAYS IT IS SO BAD I CANNOT SEE
I JUST WISH SO MUCH THAT YOU WERE STILL HERE BECAUSE YOU BELONG WITH ME......

Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ Our Reunion in Heaven Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ
We weren't prepared that day,
When God called you away.
So many tears we cried,
Longing to keep you at our side.
How we loved and missed you so,
And weren't ready to let you go,
But it gives us comfort to know,
Within the twinkling of our eyes,
You entered into paradise.
A place with beauty beyond measure,
Eternal happiness and treasure,
Where you have no more pain or tears,
Nor sorrow, worries, and fears.
Although, for now, we are apart,
Your precious memories live in our heart,
Until God calls us each to heaven's door,
Where we'll be reunited, forever more
