Theresa B. Richardson

Theresa B. Richardson, born June 23, 1931 in Gardner, MA, went to be with her Lord and Savior on November 6, 2017. She was married to her husband of 62 years, Robert Lee Richardson, who preceded her in death. In addition to her loving husband, proceeding her in death was her father, Michael Pastic; mother, Alice Plona; brother, Henry; granddaughter, Erin and many cherished aunts, uncles and cousins. Theresa loved her husband and family and was devoted to them every day of her life, even to the very end. She was very proud of her family and was most happy when talking about them. Theresa and Robert moved to Charlotte County in 1988 from New Jersey, where they had raised 6 children. She is survived by her children, Stephen (wife Cathy), Mark (wife Gina), Lynn, William (wife Rebecca), Christine (husband Dan Lee), and Alyson (husband Jerry Burch). She is also survived by her brother, Joseph Pastic; sister, Barbara LeBlanc; 11 grand-children, Stephen, Heather, Sean, Mark Jr., Samantha, Kyle, Collin, Ryan, Nicolas, Evan and Lilly as well as six great-grandchildren. Theresa will be missed by her family that she loved so much. She always taught them to love each other and to cherish what was most important, so her children all came together privately to celebrate her life and love. She will be missed terribly by them. Theresa will be laid to rest on February 22, 2018 at 1:30 pm at Sarasota National Cemetery, where she will be with her husband Robert once again and a service will be held at that time.
