  • Life is a Fragile thing - Richy223

    We've heard the very sad news that Richy passed away following cardiac arrest through a virus. His brain was starved of oxygen causing unrecoverable problems for him. My apologies this isn't new news to many of you. But we felt we should let everyone know here.

    A fire-fighter that put his own life on the line to help and save the lives of others. His whole life ahead of him he passed away at the young age of 24.

    A member here since 2011 I'm sure many of you knew him well. Be it through threads, PM's, messages, Instagram or other meets.

    After 3 DS3's he tipped the scales with his Racing and recently sold to get a Fiesta ST.

    Thoughts are with his friends and family at this very very sad time.



    Over time I'l close his threads so there are no questions left un answered on the forum and no one has to re tell the sad news.


    Life is a fragile thing
    And it can change within an instant
    Nothing is safe from the effects of change
    No person or possession we're given
    The only things we can hold forever
    Are the memories in our hearts
    The loves we share upon this earth
    Before it comes our time to part
    So choose a pathway that brings you joy
    Take time for quiet moments each day
    Appreciate the challenges that strengthen your soul
    And the blessings God sends your way
    Don't let your heart be ruled by anger
    It's just not worth the stress
    For the tumult will only expand in your heart
    And crowd out happiness
    Live each day with wonder and gratitude
    For the beauty that surrounds you
    And share your abundance generously
    It'll ensure future blessings will surround you
    Meekly accept that life's journey will include
    Unexpected, soul-wrenching heartaches
    That will bruise your soul and alter the course
    You always imagined your life would take
    And when that happens you'll have the choice
    To embrace hope or hopelessness
    You can't avoid grief, but you can refuse to accept
    A lonely future of bitterness
    So choose to be grateful for each moment
    With the loved ones you've been given…"

    Still being relatively new here I didn't have the pleasure of knowing Richy but I have seen his posts. Such a sad thing to lose anyone at such a young age and my thoughts are with his friends and family.

      I did not know him, but did see his Racing at FCS, and have seen a lot of posts about him on social media in the last couple of days. 24 is far to young for anyone to go, and life is cruel by taking someone who lived life to the full, and was one of the good guys. Thoughts with all his family and friends. RIP fella.

        Nice lad, only saw him a few week ago. Loved his cars, and to go so young isnt right.
        My sympathies are with his family.
