Richard enjoying a family reunion at Kenosee Lake
His love for music exposed me to so many beautiful things that I would have never experienced without him.
His knowledge extended way beyond music, as he loved to cook and became an avid sports fan in his later life.
Beyond his love for cooking was extending his profuse knowledge of Frank Zappa to the world. This topic never ceased to make him unbelievably happy.
Corresponding with Gail Zappa and advising on the score for the Whip It Out Ensemble, to perform some of Frank's works, was one of his most favorite experiences.
I am David, his younger brother - currently back in Melfort.
