Mr. Harrison Richardson was born on April 29, 1941 in Halifax, Virginia to Buggie and Mable Richardson. On Tuesday, January 12, 2021, God called him out of this earthly home to be with him in paradise for eternity.

Harrison, who was affectionately known as “Richard” attended the public schools of Halifax, Virginia. As a youth, he attended Mountain Grove Missionary Baptist Church in Halifax.

Richard was a hard-working man, who loved his family and provided for his family. He loved his wife dearly and all of his children, as well as his nieces and nephews. He was a quiet man that expressed his love with his actions, not his words. He was like another father to the children and grandchildren of his sister-in-law, Joann. He will be greatly missed by many.
