[willie reynolds]

Obituary Harry Richmond - I got the very sad news that long time member of Ballymena & District Harry Richmond had passed away early on Christmas morning, he had been in failing health for a number of months and had not raced in very recent years. When racing Richmond Bros were top compotators always consistent fast or slow races, and going out to the distance. They won many races in their time and topped Mid Antrim and well placed in the INFC Yearling Nat. Richmond Bros also bred the Hall of Fame winner for Alan Darragh. Even though Harry had stopped racing he was always keen to hear the local results including in his own club of Ballymena & District keeping up to date either through friends or the internet. Harry will be sadly missed. On behalf of the local fancy sincere condolences to wife Margaret and the entire family circle. Funeral service in Henry’s Funeral Parlour Broughshane Street Ballymena on Wednesday 28th. December at 1.30pm interment afterwards Ballymena Cemetery. Donations in lieu of flowers if desired may be sent to James Henry Funeral Services 100 Broughshane Street, Ballymena BT43 6EE for Wellington Presbyterian Church Building Fund.
