Anthony Richards, 50, passed away at his home in Jonesboro, Arkansas. He was born in Decatur, Alabama and was raised by his special Mom and Dad, Helen and Hiram "H.B." Richards. Anthony attended Highland High School near Cherokee Village, Arkansas.
He was a true FAN of the Dallas Cowboys football team and enjoyed the water of Southfork River with family and friends; Anthony was also an avid golfer. His work was involved in the automobile industry. He particularly advocated for autism awareness primarily for his son.
Anthony was preceded in death by his mother, Donna Church Richards and his "special Dad".
Survivors include his wife, Jaclyn Holloway Richards; his son, Hiram; daughter, Kaylie Armstrong (Kelvilon); grandchildren: Montana, Malachi, and Myles Armstrong; sisters, Lori Richards and Susan Greer (Curtis); his "special Mom"; and "Granny" Dean Church (Wallace).
A celebration of Anthony's life will be planned for later this year.
