I’ve just seen the news of Tim And Neil’s dads passing on the official Crowded House Facebook page . Very sad news and my heart goes out to the lads. At 97 ? What a fantastic life ! I used to love to listen To Neil talk about his dad - even Skype him on stage !

Rest in Peace Mr Finn

I've just read it on Twitter. Very very sad to hear this. He seems to have been quite a character.

Very sad news. But wow, 97 is a pretty decent age to make it to. Pretty awesome that he lived to see grandsons Liam, Elroy and Harper start to leave their musical mark on the world.

The future of Finn music seems in safe hands and I'm picturing Richard sitting on a cloud with Mary being incredibly proud of his family.

Very sad news. But 97 was a good long life, and it sounds like he had a very full one. RIP Mr. Finn.

Just like Neil to come do a radio show to celebrate his Father's life within a week of his passing ❤️

May you Rest in Peace Mr Finn.

Thank you for letting Neil include you in his gigs and making memories for him and us.

Throwback to Neil playing Richard his favourite song from Dizzy Heights, across the Pacific through the magic of Skype!

97 is a fantastic innings, hopefully genetics mean Tim & Neil will be around for a looong time yet.
