Marge Richards

Marge (Marguerite) Lorena Richards, 89, died Monday, March 19, 2018, in Camp Hill, PA. She was born to the late J. Russell and Marion L. Shute, in Philadelphia on Independence Day, 1928.

She was preceded in death by her husband, Edward E. Richards, and a son, Stephen E. Richards.
She is survived by a son, Donald Richards (Christine), of West Melbourne, FL; a daughter, Linda Schettini (Francisco), of Mechanicsburg; and five grandchildren Michael, Thomas, Melanie, Jessica (Nicholas), and Lisa.

Marge graduated from Upper Darby High School in 1946 and married Ed in 1953. She and Ed raised their family in Warminster, PA and lived there for 51 years before moving to the Mechanicsburg/Camp Hill area. Marge was a Mary Kay Consultant for 30 years, retiring in 2012, and a long-time, active member of the Neshaminy-Warwick Presbyterian Church. What she enjoyed most of all was hosting family get-togethers and spending time with her children and grandchildren.

Services will be held at the convenience of the family. Memorial contributions in Marge’s name may be made to Homeland Hospice (homelandhospice.org), 2300 Vartan Way, Suite 270, Harrisburg, PA 17110.
