Hi, my name is Sophie, and I wanted to set this up on behalf of all of Richard’s family to help relieve a bit of stress at the most difficult time. Richard was taken from us far too soon yesterday at just 37 years old after a battle with mental health. He was so much more than this loss — he was a devoted dad, a loving son, a caring brother, and a deeply loved partner to Sarah. Richard had a kind heart and a presence that made people feel seen and valued, and his love for his family meant everything to him. His passing has left an overwhelming emptiness in the lives of those who loved him most.

I have created this GoFundMe to help support his family through this unimaginable time, ease the unexpected financial burdens, and honor Richard’s life while also raising awareness for the importance of mental health and compassion
