Dwight W. Richardson
June 27, 1941 — May 16, 2021
Dwight Wilbur Richardson, "Big D", "Bubbles", 79, of Groveport, Ohio took his first breath in heaven on Sunday, May 16.
Dwight was retired from Riverside United Methodist Church and 5th Avenue United Methodist Church where he served as the custodian and maintenance coordinator. He also formerly served as a board member for Crossroads Community Church. In his spare time, he loved watching and riding trains with family and friends, watching OSU football with family, traveling, softball, bowling, fellowshipping over a good meal, singing hymns and oldies but goodies, and watching his beloved pup Bandit and Grandcat Rebel chase each other around the house.
He loved listening to Charles Stanley while singing and worshipping the Lord with his wife of 59 years, Gloria Richardson (Culp). After accepting the Lord as his personal Savior, at the Billy Graham Crusade in 1964, he knew he wanted to tell others the Good News.
Dwight knew no strangers and he shared his love for the Lord with everyone who crossed his path. If you know the Lord, please help Dwight continue his legacy by sharing the Good News with someone today.
"God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, Jesus Christ, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life." John 3:16
Survivors include his wife Gloria, their three children; Michelle Overman (Shawn), Christina Holliday (Chris), and Christopher Richardson (Amy). He is also survived by one brother, Michael Richardson (Sue), grandchildren; Maura Overman, Alaynah Richardson and Levi Richardson, nieces and nephew; Rhonda Overman (Jason), Sean Kirk (Mary), Cheryl Hammocks, and Kim Kirk, Aunt Emma Vaughn of Maryland, cousins and many friends.
Dwight was predeceased by parents Wilbur and Margaret Richardson, sister Ruth Kirk, brother David "Butch" Richardson and brother William Ronald "Ronnie" Richardson.
We will be celebrating Dwight, Sunday, June 27, 2021, on his 80th birthday. Details to follow in the near future.
Please make donations to International Fellowship of Christians and Jews. Cards and flowers may be sent to 210 Harbinger Drive, Groveport, Ohio 43125.
