Jason A Richardson

Jason Adam "Jaws" Richardson was born June 23, 1975 to Billy and Orpha Richardson. He passed away unexpectedly at the young age of 48 on Sunday, Feb. 18, 2024, at his home in Rocky River. 

Jason is survived by his only son, Colin Richardson, and longtime girlfriend of 14 years, Monique Franceschi.

Being a product of the mid 70s, Star Wars, Godzilla, professional wrestling and The Dukes of Hazzard were a big part of who Jason was. In 1988, Jason found a love for skateboarding. He shredded every day for the last 35 years, no matter what the weather was like or injury - nothing was going to stop him. Jason had an infinite love for video games, and later in life had a home arcade, which he dubbed the Third Shift Arcade. He worked for the Ford Plant for over 25 years, and was a lifelong fan of muscles cars. 

Jason made a lot of friends and touched a lot of lives - and in the words of his favorite band, "we live on borrowed time, hope turned to dust. Nothing is forgiven, we fight for every crust. The way we are is not the way we used to be, my friend. All things come to he who waits, the waiting never end.”
