It is that, with great sadness, the family of Richard Mark John Herriott announce his passing on July 5, 2024 at Victoria Hospital in London, Ontario, after a brief illness. He was 60 years old.

He has given Concerts in 14 Countries around the World, and has played under many great Conductors including Wyn Davies, John Pryce- Jones, Uri Mayer, Georg Tintner, and Kevin Mallon. Herriott was also widely celebrated for his highly developed and unique ability of Improvisation.
