She also leaves behind four great-grandchildren: Cole White; Mallory Robbins; Cy Katherine Robbins; and Rhiannon Eve Herring; as well as a host of nieces and nephews. Helen was preceded in death by her husband, Hubert Richardson; her son, Donnie Richardson; her parents; two brothers, C. V. Reed and James Reed; and by three sisters, Dean Freshour, Doug Reed, and Effie Higginbotham. Serving as pallbearers are Michael Chappell, Caleb Crabtree, Donnie Richardson, Jr., Toby Robbins, Cole White, and Danny White.
