I want to truly express my thanks and appreciation to all of the Ridgemen family, Girl's Ancient Fife and Drum Corps and all who came and helped us to get through a difficult time.  We appreciate your loving thoughts, all the beautiful flowers, but most of all, just being there for us as a family helped in our time of need.

 

 

 

 

 

I know that my brother Mike worked hard alongside the   other committee members in getting all of us back together again.  We now have to remain in contact and not let go of precious friends and family.  I deeply appreciate you all for what you have done.

My heartfelt appreciation,

Eileen (Carten) Howarth

An overwhelming loss. What a sweet man, funny, generous, honest, loving. All the right impulses. Just like his parents, whom I knew very well.
He was having such a good time with Ridgemen Redux. And

almost a year ago to the day, we were on the beach at Coney together to celebrate

my 60th. What a shame that he will never get to celebrate his.

I am so sorry to hear about the passing of this lovely, unselfish, kind man.
Mike was always concerned and looking out for the health and welfare of his friends and their families . .
When I inquired at the reunion about his health, he told me that he was fine, and then . . .without missing a beat . . .asked me about my 84 year old mother and her health. A good man who will indeed be missed.
