Richard, 19, went missing from Ladbroke Grove, London, on March 22, with police finding his body in a pond in Epping Forest on Monday, April 5.

The student, whose funeral is being held at St. Thomas in Kensal Town, London, was said to be struggling with shielding due to the pandemic and suffered from sickle cell disease.
