Deborah Deloris Richardson County
April 20, 1953 ~ June 28, 2026
Born in:
Mobile, Alabama
Resided in:
San Antonio, Texas
Deborah Deloris Richardson County was born April 20, 1953, in Mobile, Alabama to Virgie and Lee Richardson Sr., and passed away June 28, 2026, at age 73. Growing up in Mobile, Deborah had an infectious smile, an outgoing personality, and natural beauty which led to her crowning as Junior Miss Hillsdale High School Queen in the 1965-66 school year.
The family moved to San Antonio, Texas where she attended Phillis Wheatley High School and later graduated from Lewis W. Fox Academic & Technical High School in 1971. Deborah completed her educational studies at Durham Business College in 1973, then entered the workforce at Sears, Roebuck, and Co. as the Assistant Lead in the maintenance Agreement Department.
Her most important accomplishment was the dedication of her life by baptism to Jehovah God in 1972. She served as a devout and faithful witness throughout her life.
Deborah married Stanley County in 1973. From their union, four daughters were born: Kimberly, Kamika, Kishmiel, and Katiah.
Sweet like the cakes, Lil Debbie cared deeply for her family and animals alike. She was known as a beloved Doggie Mom, ushering countless Poodle breeds to loving homes. As a devoted “Grandma,” Deborah loved spending time with her grandkids – playing, dancing, cooking, eating, and junking in the pickup truck.
Deborah was preceded in death by her parents, Virgie and Lee Richardson Sr. and sister, Margaret Richardson Vaughn. Celebrating her life and cherishing her memory are her daughters, ten grandchildren: Jaylin, Madison, Mikayla, Mason, McKenzie, Major, Terrell, Kanem, Rylan, and Reagan; three brothers: Lee A. Richardson Jr., John J. Richardson, and Rayford D. Richardson, PhD; one sister, Katrina L. Richardson; half-brother, David Pettway and half-sister, Bernice Thomas; along with a host of relatives and friends.

To the family and friends of Sister County:
We are so deeply saddened by the loss of your beloved mother, grandmother, and sister. Sister County brought so much joy, warmth, and sweetness to those around her, always reflecting an infectious smile and a generous heart. Most importantly, her decades of faithful, unbroken devotion to Jehovah God stand as an inspiring example to us all.
We look forward with you to the fulfillment of Jesus’ promise at John 5:28, 29, when all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out. We look forward to seeing her vibrant, joyful spirit once again on a peaceful paradise earth, where death and sorrow will be no more. (Revelation 21:3, 4) May Jehovah comfort your hearts and give you strength during this difficult time. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all.
With warm Christian love,

Extending Deepest Sympathy in the loss of your beloved sister. Siblings share a special bond…that is the heart of the family. She was a loving sister, daughter, mother, wife, grandmother, auntie, cousin, Friend of Jehovah and countless others.
Deborah was a endearing, precious “GEM” and so much more that glorifies the God she served.
A woman of quiet strength, love, beauty, strong faith, precious in Jehovah’s eyes and the brotherhood. Her countless deeds of loyal love, kindness, compassion and endurance despite great adversity was no ordinary act, but a Gift of Rare Beauty & Blessing to family, friends and beyond.
What tender thoughts and sweet memories of our Endearing Friend of Jehovah to cherish with joy and pride?!
It is through the way she served others in dedication to Jehovah God, for decades with endless love, support & acts of kindness to family and friends in life that will be fondly remembered most.
What a Beautiful collection of memories that tell the story of her life shared with family and friends on many joyous occasions and united in worship to Jehovah God?! Wishing you the peace of God to comfort and strengthen your heart to heal. He is never blind to your tears. Never deaf to your prayers.
And never silent to your pain of heart.
Grief is a lonely road no one wants to walk.
Jehovah is close to the broken hearted.
With faith and hope in the promises of tomorrow when there will be no more pain or sorrow. This is a pause and not a period in the journey of life.
Proverbs 14:10
The heart knows its own bitterness…
Not without hope we mourn with you.
He will not let your heart grieve for long. John 11:17
Soon just around the corner HE WILL CALL. Jehovah will change your mourning into rejoicing.And your dear loved ones will awaken in the NEW WORLD to enjoy Life without End – At Last!
Malachi 3:16,17
“At that time those who feared Jehovah spoke with one another, each one with his companion, and Jehovah kept paying attention and listening. And a book of REMEMBRANCE was written before him for those fearing Jehovah and for those meditating on his name.”
He will comfort and give you joy instead of grief. This is what Jehovah says:
Hold back your voice from weeping and your eyes from tears,
There is a hope for your future…
Jeremiah 31:13c, 16a, 17a
So Loved
So Cherished
So Remembered
