"He will be sorely missed by his family and many friends. Mum and dad, brothers, sister-in-laws, aunts, uncles and cousins are very much shocked by his sudden passing."
"Richard made and took his own chances in life, living it to the full - there was never a dull moment with him, he was a strong character, well-known and a lively person, with an eclectic circle of friends and interests," they added.
