Location: Strabane
Message: I can't understand this, it hasn't sunk in with me yet that I'll never see the Hulk again. Richard was a hero and a friend to me, and my heart is breaking.

Richard was the most laid back and modest star I've ever met. He always had time for a laugh and a joke, and the paddock will never be the same without him.

Deepest condolences to Maria, Loris, Margaret, Willie, and all Richard's family and friends. I know how much you are hurting, beause I'm hurting as much.

I'm so proud to be able to say that I knew such a great man. RIP Reggie.

Name: Shane O'Brien
Location: Kilmallock, Co. Limerick.
Message: Three of us sat on the ditch in Ballybunnion yesterday and witnessed the death of one of our heroes. Only a couple of hours earlier we sat a table away from him eating breakfast. "How's she cuttin'" I said to him, "All right and yourself" he replied. I was chuffed. Shortly afterwards we watched himself and Martin Finnegan stretched out on two deck chairs in the paddock chatting and laughing. We've seen him at road races all over the country and that's what we were used to seeing, a smiling, happy face. He touched us and we felt we owned a bit of him, I'm sure we're not alone with this feeling. I can't imagine how his wife, little Loris, his family and friends are feeling this morning. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
Goodbye Richard, we'll miss you.
Shane, Darragh & Butch

It was an honour to have both raced with and knew Richard. A real down to earth guy with no 'aires and graces'. The racing world and the Fermanagh community are very much the poorer today with his passing.
