I'm sure I speak for everyone at the Bonsai Society of Victoria when I say Richard will be sadly missed.
Deep condolences to his family and close friends. Richard was a true gentleman and a very generous man. Something which I personally experienced many times.
For example, he gifted me his one and only plant of Chojubai Quince from which all others in the country come.
Rest In Peace Richard.
RIP Richard Salvado

Re: RIP Richard Salvado
I agree, Richard was a very generous man with his knowledge and his plants.
He had demonstrated a number of times that I had seen from the 90's thru to just a couple of years ago at Bonsai Northwest promoting his minis and encouraging people to have a go.
I think he was a key person in the Bonsai community while it was growing in the 80's and 90's.
I was also lucking enough recently to buy and also receive as gifts some minis of Richard's that are important pieces in my collection.
My condolences to the Salvado Family.
