Joining Lynn in her sorrow are Richard and Lynn’s siblings Berkley (Linda) Fleming, Michael (Sharon) Fleming, Margot (Ken, deceased) Ridley, Howard (Cathy) Attfield and Susan (David) Bertrand.
He was a passionate supporter of the Twin Elm Rugby Park and a member of the Bytown Blues Rugby Club, volunteered on innumerable committees for Nepean and Ottawa, was an avid gardener, cook and was a Warden of St. Stephen’s Anglican Church.
