Remelle Richardson went to be with her Lord and Savior October 6, 2020 at the age of 90. She was born to parents, Clayton Bradley and Bessie Beatrice Owens on November 24, 1929 in Florence, Alabama. In 1948 Remelle married the love of her life Rufus Joe Richardson and built a wonderful life with him until his passing in 2018. She was a dedicated employee with the Irving Independence School district for 25 years. Remelle loved her Friday nights with friends and church members playing Dominoes, 42, and SkpBo. She and Rufus where members of the Circle I Square Dance Club in Irving where they enjoyed dancing. She was an avid traveler and had a passion for traveling all over. Remelle was a faithful member of First Christian Church in Irving, Texas. Above all her loves and passions in life nothing was more important to Remelle than her family. The family will forever fondly remember her amazing dressing at Thanksgiving, her Texas sheet cake, and the many Sunday dinners where she would make sure to have the roast cooking while at church so her family could gather at her home after.
