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.

A Few Kind Words...

“Just a note to say a huge thank you to yourself and the wonderful team at Send Greenwoods, they took care of us all yesterday at Les Ingram’s funeral. I’ve really valued your help and support over the last few weeks and the wonderful men yesterday went beyond their ‘call of duty’. They were certainly there at our great time of need. Please pass on my thanks to everyone. I also enclose four more donations. Many thanks again.”

“You make an extremely difficult time easier. Dad’s service was very fitting and I was so pleased to see him dressed in his uniform and hold his had one last time, Jess you did a lovely job. Thank you so so much.”

Clare

“I would like to say a huge thank you to both Carina at Alan Greenwood and Sons in Frimley and the Celebrant. When my mother-in-law passed, we had absolutely no idea what we were doing other than needing to contact a funeral directors. After calling, Carina invited us into the Frimley branch for an informal chat and made us feel at ease straight away. She talked us through every step whilst being compassionate, caring and professional during the whole process. It was a difficult time that was made so much easier by the way Carina and Maria handled everything. When the Celebrant contacted us we were unsure of what we wanted for the service, with his knowledge and understanding he helped us to put together a service that was both relaxed, professional and perfectly suited to us. Thank you to the whole team!”
