Quote:

Dec. 21: "It was also Ron Richards’, aka Allen Saddler, funeral today:
Ron was a writer, activist, socialist and humanitarian whom I’ve known
for over 20 years. Sam sang a Max Miller song, we all sang 'We Shall
Overcome' and Jazz musicians played great music to send him on his way
– he’d have loved it."


Also a theatre critic, he lived in Totnes, Devon, England.

Here's what I posted on his birthday in 2008:
