It is with a very heavy heart that Shira Richardson’s relatives are asking for help for Shira Richardson and for her parents, Glenn and Virginia Richardson, who are facing the sudden loss of their oldest daughter. Shira was 44 years old and will be remembered as a singer, an artist, a passionate beauty, and someone who loved the Lord. Her passing has come as a complete shock to the family. Shira had been living with her parents, who had recently begun living on Social Security, and there was no insurance in place to cover the expenses that now come with this heartbreaking loss. Along with the deep grief of losing Shira so unexpectedly, Glenn and Virginia are now carrying a financial burden they were not prepared for.

This fundraiser is being created by Shira’s relatives to help ease that burden in a practical and meaningful way. The funds will go toward Shira’s funeral costs, memorial services, and any expenses she had at the time of her passing. During a time when the Richardson family should be focused on mourning, remembering, and honoring Shira’s life, they are instead having to worry about how to pay for final arrangements. Any support, no matter the size, would be deeply appreciated and will go directly to her parents. If giving is not possible, please keep Glenn, Virginia, and all who loved Shira in your prayers. Thank you for surrounding this family with compassion, love, and support during such a painful time.
