We are heartbroken to have just lost one of our de

We are heartbroken to have just lost one of our dearest friends, the incomparable Richard Buckley. Richard was such a unique human. Savagely funny but also delighting in the silliest of pranks, his wit was dry and razor sharp but in truth he was very sweet and deeply kind. He saw the person alone in a room full of others and sought to make them feel comfortable. He was a great conversationalist, always interested in other people’s stories. He was a fiercely loyal and extremely thoughtful friend. He cared very much about, well, everything, because he was such a sensitive and intelligent soul. He also possessed a rare sense of fairness and honour.
Of course his elegant sense of style and manners are legendary and when those astonishing light blue eyes met yours for the first time, I’ll be honest, it was more than a little intimidating. Imagine how delightful then to discover that behind the icy cool gaze was an incorrigible rascal with a heart of gold.
Richard was the BEST writer (his emails were epic) the best dad, the best dresser, the best planner and the best most patient male shopping partner ever! (See pics #4 & 5)
Oh, we are missing you already dearest Ricky.
Sending all our love and healing thoughts to his loving and devoted husband Tom @tomford , their son Jack, Richard’s family and all his dear friends. Rest in Peace and Grace sweet Richard. How blessed we were to have called you our beloved friend.
