William Richardson, Columbus, OH— The Hilltop community is mourning the passing of William Richardson, a cherished member of West High School Cowboys and a figure known for his generosity, warmth, and leadership. William passed away unexpectedly on September 8, 2024, leaving behind an indelible mark on those who knew him.
William, who worked as the Site Manager at Northland Moo Moo Express for 1 1/2 years, was remembered as a positive leader with a contagious smile and a passion for jazz. His influence extended beyond his immediate team, touching the lives of many through his mentorship and kindness.
Marshall M Roy II, a close friend of William, shared heartfelt words on Facebook, reflecting on the countless memories they had together. In his emotional post, he recalled their last conversation and the joy they found in discussing family and future plans. "Hilltop living, legend William Richardson… God open up the gates for you because you are a great person… You will forever be a living legend on the west side of Columbus, especially the Hilltop, especially West High School Cowboys," he wrote.
Don Coon Jackson added, "Fly High Big Fella," in a brief yet poignant tribute.
A fundraiser organized by Sharon Lewis has been set up to assist William’s family with funeral expenses and to support his two sons, who are both freshmen in high school. The goal of the campaign is to raise $20,000 to help cover unexpected costs and ensure his sons are taken care of during this difficult time. As of now, donations are still open, and the family has yet to reach their goal.
The outpouring of support from the community highlights the love and respect William garnered throughout his life. His presence will be sorely missed, but his memory will live on in the hearts of those who had the privilege to know him.
Our thoughts and prayers are with William Richardson’s family during this difficult time. May his soul rest in peace, and may his family find strength in the legacy of love he leaves behind.
