I had the honour to meet Richard on the Queen Elizabeth. I was the first class gym-attendant. I believe that it was in 1949. He came into the gym every day and I supervised his exercising , and we also fenced. He was a very interesting person and I enjoyed working with him very much. I was 22 years of age at the time. I have read his latest bio, and feel for him because of the lost of his sons. Richard, if you read this comment of mine,I sincerely wish you well in your senior years. I am 82 list year. I live in London Ontario Canada with my dear wife of nearly 62 years. Have watrched many of the great films that you performed in. Kind Regards Fre Skinner

Mr. Todd was a memorable Lochie in "The Hasty Heart." I lated named my ever favorite lab after him as, Lochie. A handsome man with talent that wouldn`t quit. I am indeed his fan. Funny--he`s my Dad`s age. I sure wish I could meet him...sigh.
