Angela Marie Richards, 47 of Springfield, Illinois passed away on October 4, 2025, surrounded by her
loved ones.
Born on February 9, 1978, in Springfield, Illinois. Her vibrant spirit and deep love for her family left a
lasting impression on all who knew her.
Angela is lovingly remembered by her significant other, Doug Dahl. Her sisters: Alyson Dahl,
Vanessa Cleeton, Michelle Richards, Tiffany Anderson, and Mindy Powell. Her brothers: Justin and
Kurtis Anderson. Stepfather, Kurt Anderson. Her children: Aaron Richards, Austin Meyers, Jacob
Richards, Jordanna Beechler, and Brandon Dahl. She was a devoted grandmother to Alex and Mason
Beechler, Kora Cowles, Ashton Richards, and Levi Meyers. Angela also leaves behind several nieces
and nephews as well as great-nieces and great-nephews, along with many friends who will cherish her
memory.
She was preceded in death by her mother Debra Richards (Decriox), father Butch Richards and
Stepmother Angela Richards. Aunts: Marty and Mary Decroix, both sets of grandparents, and her
beloved daughter Alyssa Richards.
Angela had a passion for movies and music and was known for being an avid fan of both. She loved
to dance and brought joy to any room she entered. Her grandchildren were the light of her life-she
adored them deeply and found immense happiness in their presence. Angela's love extended beyond
family; she had a special place in her heart for children and animals alike. Known as the life of the
party, she had an infectious energy that uplifted those around her. Her generosity knew no
bounds-she would do anything for those she loved.
A celebration of life will be held at a later date to honor Angela's memory.
May her memory bring comfort to those who knew and loved her.
