OLIVER and Valerie Blease would like to thank, most sincerely, their very many friends for their cards, letters and verbal messages of support on the occasion of them becoming mayor and mayoress of Richmond.
The response of the people of Richmond to our selection to be first citizens of this ancient borough has been overwhelming.
Oliver and Valerie Blease, Richmond.
