Bishop Richard David Say KCVO (4 October 1914 – 14 September 2006) was the Bishop of Rochester in the Church of England from 1961 to 1988.

He was often noted for his height (6 ft 4in).

Say was the son of Commander Richard Say RNVR.

He was educated at Arnold House School in London, University College School, Christ's College, Cambridge and Ridley Hall.

He served his curacy at Croydon (then in the Diocese of Canterbury), then at St Martin-in-the-Fields (Diocese of London) where he was General Secretary of the Church of England Youth Council.

He later became General Secretary of the British Council of Churches and (as a conscious disciple of William Temple and a close supporter of Bishop George Bell) an Anglican representative at World Council of Churches conferences.

Say supported the city of Rochester, Chatham, Kent County Cricket Club, the University of Kent (serving as Pro Chancellor for several years) and, more recently, Canterbury itself.

He was also for 18 years High Almoner to the Queen.
