I have many happy memories of a lovely cousin. When we were children, you would turn up at Grosvenor Road in the early 60’s with that cheeky smile on your face and we visited Alverton on many occasions, always made to feel welcome by your Mum and Dad, we had a lot of fun, happy days.
Rest in peace Richard.

Thank you for being the best father-in-law. I truly couldn’t have asked for a better one! You gave so much love and support to Darren and me, especially with Jacob and Isabella, and that meant more than words can ever say.

You lived your life with strong morals and a deep love for your family. You weren’t just a great family man, you were a true friend to many, and a champion of our village.

You took over the butchers and opened Poyntons in Old Colwyn in 1979, you poured your heart into it, and its success today is a reflection of your dedication and hard work.

We are so proud of everything you achieved, and we will do our very best to take care of it, just as you did.

Thanks for everything. X
