Wendy Lee Campbell Richardson

1951~2022

Riverton, UT- Wendy passed away peacefully surrounded by her loved ones on July 15, 2022. She was born April 18, 1951, in Salt Lake City, Utah, to Serge Lang Campbell and Betty Lorraine Cahoon Campbell. She married LeGrand Wayne Richardson in Salt Lake City. Wendy's medical issues started in 1986, when she was diagnosed with a large brain tumor at the young age of 35. She persevered through cancer treatment and continued to live a mostly normal and productive life, aside from some disabilities. The radiation effects started to cause trouble for her later in life, and the last 10 years her body began to rapidly decline.

Wendy loved shopping, decorating her home, and spending time with family and friends. Shopping was a favorite pastime of hers and she would often plan outings with her mom, sisters and daughters. Earlier in her life, she graduated from Granite High School in 1969. She started her career at Holiday Inn Nationwide Reservations, which gave her the ability and inspiration to travel all over the US and Mexico. She met her husband LeGrand the day he returned home from the Navy. They were set up on a blind date by their two best friends Shauna and Robert. This coming November 9th would be their 50th wedding anniversary. Her husband's career gave them the opportunity to live in many different places: Salt Lake City UT, Los Angeles CA, Portland OR, and Denver CO. Everywhere she went Wendy accumulated lifelong friends. She was beloved by all who knew her. Many of her closest friends were childhood friends.
