The Government said it was “with great sadness” that it noted his death adding that, in the last three years he “brought a great deal of happiness to Gibraltar by producing such excellent Music Festivals.”

The Chief Minister, Fabian Picardo said: "Richard became a friend to many in Gibraltar in the time he collaborated with us on the music festival, the Royal Philharmonic Concert Orchestra and the Bocelli event. I have been very sad to hear of his death as a result of Covid. He was a genuinely nice man and very 'can-do' at about everything we asked of him. I have written to his son Ayran to express our sincere condolences to all his family and friends."
