Wealdstone parish Mass of Thanksgiving for Richard 7th Aug 2007




Richard’s funeral Mass at St. Joseph’s Wealdstone was very much a family occasion. His nieces and their families from Liverpool were there, still mourning the recent loss of their mum, Flo who was one of Richard’s sisters. His great-niece Kate read the first reading from Isaiah.

Members of Richard’s extended family from his chaplaincy and parish apostolates gathered together with local parishioners who remembered Richard from his days as Provincial based at Wealdstone.

We were made welcome by Fr. Peter Preston (Provincial) and Fr. Michael Doherty (Parish Priest) and by many of his religious family of Salvatorian brothers and sisters. Fr. Milton came from Rome to represent the Generalate and many others came from abroad and across the UK; Fathers Malachy McBride, Liam Talbot, Danny Burns, Lawrence Murphy, Noel Keane, Seamus O'Duill, Terry Cantwell, Desmond Cantwell, Bernard Finan, Thomas Hennessey, John Murray, John Vallomprayil, Henry Nevin, Bill Harrison and Giorgio Malecki. Fr Patrick Kearney and Fr. Floribert were able to attend Richard’s reception on Mon. evening.

Also concelebrating was Fr. Peter Murphy from Southwark Diocese who was a school boy in the Borough parish during Richard’s ministry there.

The importance of Richard’s life as a Salvatorian and priest was symbolised by the Salvatorian handbook being brought up in the offertory procession, together with his priestly Mass kit, which Chew Magna parish had given to him. As Fr. Peter emphasised in his homily the Salvatorian directive “ to serve people everywhere, by all the ways and means which the love of Christ inspires”, really did bear fruit in Richard’s life.

How moving it was at the final commendation to see his Salvatorian brothers carry Richard from the church, and then at the cemetery take him to his final resting place alongside other Salvatorians who have gone before him.

As Mike Whitty concluded in his eulogy at Wealdstone, “Richard was a Salvatorian priest and his brothers in Christ here, and in other communities around the world are also feeling his loss. Let us remember them in our own prayers, thanking God and ask Him to send them more priests to carry on their work of service and evangelisation as Richard has done”
