Title: Pete Richards
Post by: Wandering Steve on September 06, 2022, 11:47:24 PM
I find this hard to write but Pete Richards passed away this morning after a short illness.
He would be known to many for helping organise the brasenose fringe and was responsible for booking the acts that performed over many years.
He loved the festival, the fringe and cropredy village.
I’m sure many on here would have met him over the years at the festival/fringe.

Condolences to Alfie and the family.

One of the best men I’ve ever met despite his bad jokes and I’m glad to call him my friend.

God bless Pete , sleep tight , R I P.

RIP Pete
