Richard Shaun Browning

(27th May 1966 - 2nd December 2023)

A devoted husband and father, passed away suddenly at the all too young age of 57 at home in Epsom.

Richard had numerous talents including writing, travel, comedy and music.  He played various instruments, being a member of the popular local covers band Broken Switch and playing music with friends from his road.

As Development Editor and co-founder of The Daily Mail’s This is Money financial website. He was known for his humour, generosity and his ability to connect with people from all walks of life.

Richard is survived by his loving wife Isabelle, his beloved daughter Emilie and his wider family who will miss him dearly.

The funeral service will be held on 28th December at Randall’s Park Crematorium, Leatherhead. Richard would want everyone to be comfortable and therefore the dress code is informal.

In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the charities mentioned below.

Family of Stanley Stearman

“As a family we cannot thank you enough for all your care and support of us on the passing of our mum – Peggy Hart on October 19th and her funeral on October 31st. As we know from the past, you do a wonderful job and all the staff are so caring and compassionate. Carol you are a rock (dare I say Star!) as you guided us through so much and helped keep us on track.

The day went off so smoothly and well. Mum looked good and would have so enjoyed her last ride in the jag! Also she would have been pleased at Alan leading the way, as Dad – Bill thought so highly of him and always spoke of him in glowing terms when he was alive and said he was a great guy to work with.

Thank you, thank you, what more can I say. I just wish you had offices in Canada so when my time comes, I know I would be in such excellent caring hands.”

Maggie & Mike Raftery

Just a quick note to say thank you so much for all your help and support over the last month or so.
The funeral was just as it should have been.
Your staff were lovely and the day went without a hitch.”

Michele & Caroline

“I cannot believe that a month has passed since we first met, the day after Brian died. Within a short time of our encounter, I know that an occasion I had always dreaded would be transformed into a positive, memorable occasion – and so it was!

Your warm and practical attitude, as well as highly professional advice, immediately instils confidence. Every detail of the proceedings is meticulously explained and I felt completely relaxed. Thank you Jess for making everything work so well. You are a remarkable lady with a definite vocation and I wish you all the very best for the future. I felt I found a real, new friend, just when I needed it most.”

Irene

Although it was such a difficult time for us as a family, you ensured that we were so well looked after & that everything went perfectly. Our tears often turned to laughter in your company & that’s because you helped us remember the good times.

Thank you for everything from the bottom of our hearts. We would also like to thank the whole team involved in helping before, during and after my dad’s funeral. You truly are amazing, showing such dignity, compassion, care and professionalism. Thank you.”
