Anthony (Tony) David Richardson

August 26, 1966 ~ March 2, 2021

Tony Richardson, beloved husband, father, and son, passed away suddenly on Tuesday, March 2, 2021. With a love for the outdoors, he was an avid mountain climber when he was younger. Even after his illness left him unable to climb for long periods, he enjoyed traveling throughout the US and overseas and visiting fine art museums, as well as hunting ducks every winter and collecting timeless duck memorabilia. He will always be known for his drive to succeed and his ability to overcome adversity, and his family is so proud of the man he was striving to become. He is an example of perseverance and strength like none other.

Born to David Gene Richardson and Patty Jean Marrone on August 26, 1966, in Brigham City, Utah, Tony attended Ben Lomond High School. He served a mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Anchorage, Alaska, where he met his bride and eternal companion, Deanna Marie (Calder) Richardson.

He is survived by his wife Deanna, and their four children, Seth, Aubryn, Ashleigh, and Adam. He also leaves behind Rosie, the family dog and fifth child who was the biggest fan of his pot roasts.

Other survivors are his father Dave (Charma) Richardson, stepfather Gary Boerens, sister Melanie Richardson, and brother Scott Richardson. He was preceded in passing by his mother Patty Marrone Boerens and his brother Daniel Richardson.

Graveside services will be held Saturday, March 13, 2021 at 10 a.m. at Kaysville City Cemetery, 500 East Crestwood Road, Kaysville.
