JEREMY WILL RICHARDSON 

May 30, 1969–Sept. 23, 2024

Jeremy Will Richardson passed away peacefully in his sleep the night of Sept. 23, 2024, at his home in Newcastle, Wyoming.

Jeremy was born in Roseberg, Oregon, on May 30, 1969, to Jimmy and Jance Richardson. Jeremy was the oldest of two, his sister Julie Richardson was born two years after him.

Jeremy went to school in Oregon, before moving to Rock Springs, Wyoming, where he graduated in 1988. During his time in school in Rock Springs he was an avid wrestler, which led him to be state champion his eighth grade year. Once he hit high school he met his future wife and mother to his two children, Cheryl Parrow. While in high school they married on July 5, 1987, and he also found his love for cars, which led to his first job in a machine shop and the purchase of his first car being a 1968 Camaro RS/SS.

Once married, Jeremy and Cheryl moved to Douglas, Wyoming, where they had their first child, Kera Richardson, on Feb. 12, 1992. Four years following they moved to Buffalo, Wyoming, where they gave birth to their son, Cameron Richardson.

Jeremy had moved to many places throughout his life but always did jobs that related to cars, and spent much of his time working in different car parts stores, doing mechanical work, and truck driving later in his life. He always preferred to spend most of his free time with family, children and grandchildren. Even though he moved around a lot he always found himself coming back to Wyoming. He moved to Newcastle the summer of 2013.

Jeremy had many hobbies in his life. He enjoyed hunting and fishing, which he did a lot of in his younger years with his father and uncles. He also enjoyed weightlifting and strength training in his younger life. He always had a deep passion for mechanics but almost seemed to enjoy the hunt for odd or obscure cars and parts more than he enjoyed actually working on them. However, it never stopped him from having countless car projects over the years. He even dabbled in the culinary world as he enjoyed smoking meats and baking breads. Sourdough being one of his favorites. All while enjoying his favorite drink, a screwdriver.

Jeremy was a family oriented man, who cared deeply for his loved ones. He loved spending quality time with his family and always put them first before himself.

He is survived by his mother, Janice Richardson; his father, Jimmy Richardson; aunts and uncles, Ken and Carol Richardson and Tom and Linda King; cousins, Troy Richardson, Kenna Rubinato and Greg King; sister, Julie Richardson; daughter, Kera Weldon; son, Cameron Richardson; and his grandkids, Toryn and Ariya Weldon. He is also survived by his three dogs Abby, Bowser, and Caine.

Jeremy made many friends everywhere he went, he never shied away from knocking on a stranger’s door just because they had a cool car in their yard. He loved his family and we love him. He will be greatly missed but always remembered.
