Email received from Geoff Richardson:

Hi gang,

The funeral of Brig Dick Flint went well and Geoff Daly, Chris Madden and I were honoured to be included. I hope our fellow OTU members have linked on and viewed the live feed.

Meeting more of Dick Flint’s family , although at his funeral, was comforting. Dick and Lyndall have contributed well to our community having three children, Richard, Susan and Andrew that produced five grandchildren and  to date have seven great grandchildren. Family members with babes in arms added to the occasion.

Richard Flint was in agreement that I make his personal contacts available to the OTU Association. I pointed out that some cadets may wish to speak with or connect through an e-link with him and share stories.

The recording I made with Dick, twelve months ago, will be viewed at our Anzac reunion in Canberra. We will then send that link to the family.

Neil, I will draft out a few words re : Richo at Dick F’s funeral 22 March and get it to you.

Keep well,

Richo

Hi Gang,

In conversation with Richard Flint (jnr) he has asked if our members wishing to view the live feed of the funeral could hold off logging on until a future date.

The funeral director indicated that the ONE ROOM site is not big and they wish it stay available to other family members to view who cannot attend privately.

I believe the site will be available for 90 days. We were unable to get another group sign on and password so the use of my sign on and password may need to be used.

All honourable people but not sure about those that played in the forwards. I hope I do not receive an influx of sales adverts from non Scheyvillians!

I have received a few calls from past Scheyvillians telling me of their connection with Dick. I enjoy a chat and their stories just relate the empathy he carried for those under him.

Keep well,

Richo

Hi Frank,

This is the contact to watch the service. I hope this will get to all the individuals on your group list. I cannot delete the bottom half of the info where my contacts are listed and would not like others to use my link. They should be able to forward it to another friend. I am seeking some more personal details from family so Neil Leckie can produce a thorough article for the Scheyvillian.

Keep well,

Geoff Richardson
