Richard Porter

4th January 2012

It is with deep sadness and sorrow that we confirm the tragic death of Richard Porter at the young age of 45.

Richard's family held a private funeral for him on 30 December in Kilmarnock.

“Bumpy”, as he was affectionately known, joined Ryden in 1997 and enjoyed success with our Edinburgh office agency department before joining our investment team and progressing to Partner in 2007. 

We have received many messages of sympathy and support from across the property industry reflecting the regard in which Bumpy was held and the widespread shock at the tragic news.

A fund has been set up in Richard's memory in association with SANE, the UK's leading mental health charity. Any donations should be sent to:

The Richard Porter Fund
c/o SANE
Free Post
WD 528
LONDON

We extend our condolences to Richard’s family, friends, loved ones, business contacts and colleagues.  He is remembered with great affection as being an intelligent, talented and tenacious businessman who was very popular with everyone and who will be very sadly missed.
