LUNENBURG- Shelly L. (Rockwell) Richardson, 54, passed away peacefully at home surrounded by those she loved on May 22, 2023 after a courageously fought battle with cancer.

 

Born in Warwick, Rhode Island on September 21, 1968, she was the daughter of the late Wayne B. Rockwell and Dolores E. (Chandronnet) Allison. After graduating from North Kingstown High School in 1988, Shelly furthered her education in business at the Community College of Rhode Island.

Throughout her career at Kellogg, Shelly worked in various roles such as Retail Sales Manager, District Sales Manager and most recently as a Retail Market Manager.  

 

Shelly loved to travel with family and friends but above all loved being a grandmother and cherished time spent with her grandchildren.

 

Shelly leaves behind her loving husband, Christopher Richardson, her beloved daughter, Casondra Clark and her husband, Anthony and their three children Paxton, Saylor and Wren. Five brothers and sisters, Sherri Zelen, Stephanie Woodbury, Aaron Allison, Jen Rockwell, and Herb Rockwell. Shelly also leaves her stepfather, Frederick Allison and her grandmother, Marion Chandronnet. She also leaves her dogs who she loved dearly, Gunner and Guiness.

 

Family and friends will celebrate Shelly's life with visiting hours on Friday, May 26th from 4:00pm until 7:00pm at the Callahan, Fay & Caswell Life Celebration Home, 61 Myrtle St., Worcester.
