RICHARDS, John Spencer:
21.03.1945 - 04.09.2022

Elayne, Chrystine, Allistair, Suzanne and their families would like to express our deepest appreciation for everyones sympathy as we mourned the sudden loss of our loved husband, father, Pop and friend. The shared memories from all of you at the funeral, along with the many phone calls, cards, food, flowers and words of condolence was greatly appreciated. A special thank you to Sharyn Payne who helped at the 11th hour. Also a special acknowledgement to Rachael, Hamish and the team at J Fraser and Sons who made the journey of our grief even more special. Thank you to the emergency services for your prompt attention and care. To everyone who reached out to us during our time of mourning, we are grateful for your continued support and love during our time of need. John will be missed dearly by all who knew him.
Our rock,
husband, father, Pop and friend you provided, helped and taught us a great deal of lifes lessons.
Rest up – you so deserve it.
Do not wait for tomorrow,
for tomorrow may not be.
