E. Lee Richardson

E. Lee Richardson, 68, of Mishawaka, passed away, Wednesday, Oct. 19, 2022, at IU Health West Hospital, surrounded by his wife and daughters.

He was born Oct. 13, 1954, in Greencastle to Earl Andrew Richardson and Nancy Richardson Garrett.

On Aug. 16, 1997, he married Barbara Ochs.

She survives along with his four daughters, Sarah (Aaron) Graber of Dunnellon, Fla., Megan (Phil) Ross of Ocala, Fla., Sarah (Dakota) Enslen of White Pigeon, Mich., and Amy (Brandon) Ernest of Osceola, Fla.; nine grandchildren, Brodie, Jackson, Adelyn, Anderson, Mason, Coralyn, Emery, Everett and Amelia; his mother; and his siblings, Jarry (Vicki) Richardson, Shelly Richardson, Matt (Sarah) Richardson and Josh (Samantha) Richardson.

He was preceded in death by his father and his grandson, Zachary.

Lee graduated from Greencastle High School and was a successful business man who most recently worked for Nickell Moulding (Patrick Industries).

He will be remembered most for his love of food, specifically guacamole, his sense of humor and his woodworking. His favorite place to be was in a room surrounded by his family, lots of talking and even more laughing.

There will be a private memorial service held at a later date.

In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to Pet Refuge of South Bend.
