In loving memory of our dear son Richard Norman Everitt. Born 1978. Died 1994.

Site: Richard Everitt (1 memorial)
NW1, Brill Place, Purchese Street Open Space
Richard was 15 when he was stabbed to death, a victim of mistaken identity in the local racist gang wars. London Street Gangs gives more information. We can't confirm it but we guess that this memorial has been placed close to where murder took place.
