Obituary of Byron Richardson
Richardson: Byron F. –
It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Byron Richardson.
Byron passed away peacefully at the Chatham-Kent Health Alliance, Chatham Campus, on Monday, January 6, 2025, at the age of 64.
Born on November 30, 1960, he was the cherished son of Bonnie and the late Bernie Richardson (2008).
Byron served his country proudly as a member of the Canadian military. His years of service reflected his unwavering discipline, humanity, and loyalty to his comrades. He carried these values with him throughout his life.
A lifelong fan of the Boston Bruins, Byron was also an avid participant in sports, excelling in baseball, hockey, golf, and swimming. His passion for athletics was matched only by his dedication as a swim coach for the Blenheim Blasts (Foxtails). As both a mentor and a friend, Byron’s guidance will forever be treasured by those whose lives he touched. His expertise and enthusiasm, particularly for teaching the butterfly stroke, left an indelible mark on countless swimmers.
Above all, Byron was a devoted family man. He was the beloved husband of Leean (née Bikus) for 33 wonderful years. He leaves behind his loving daughters Rachel Charbonneau (Ryan), Sarah Richardson, and Tess Richardson, as well as his grandson, Louie Bryon Charbonneau. Byron is also survived by his dear sister Beth Schweitzer (Mark) and was a proud uncle to Keith, Kyle, and Matthew.
Byron will be fondly remembered for his infectious laughter, warm smile, and the joy he brought to those around him.
Honouring Byron’s wishes, cremation has taken place. A Celebration of Life will be held at the Ridgetown Legion on Friday, January 17th from 3:00 – 5:30 pm. A private family interment will follow at Greenwood Cemetery, Ridgetown, at a later date.
In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests that donations be made in Byron’s memory to New Beginnings of Chatham.
