Robert "Bo" Richardson, age 81, of Wisconsin Dells, passed away on July 10, 2026. He was born on November 21, 1944, to Robert and Helen Richardson.

Bo was a man of many talents and a hard worker throughout his life. Over the years, he took great pride in his work, first serving his community as a Certified Cheesemaker and later spending years on the road, driving semi-trucks.

Outside of work, Bo was a gifted craftsman who spent countless hours in his workshop creating beautiful items with his woodworking skills. He appreciated the simpler pleasures in life, always looking forward to a competitive game of cribbage and discovering a great place to enjoy a good meal. Above all else, Bo was a dedicated family man. His deepest love and greatest joy was the time he spent surrounded by his family.

Bo leaves behind his beloved wife of 42 years, PeggyAnn Richardson. He is also survived by his three sons, Scott (Jill) Richardson, Matthew (Sarah) Crapeau, and Jeff Crapeau; his two daughters, Arlene Erdman and Sara Wilson; his brother Ron Richardson and his three sisters, Ruth Schloer, Debbie Palecek and Jeni Barbeln.

Bo's legacy lives on through his eleven grandchildren: Amanda (Aaron) Paun, Zach (Jessica) Richardson, Portor Richardson, Monique Richardson, James (Lacey) Crapeau, Maddy Crapeau, Theresa Crapeau, Alexander Crapeau, Hannah (Drew) Volenec, Emily Erdman, and Maddy Erdman; as well as his four great-grandchildren, Kashten and Reilyn Paun, Jude Richardson, and Elizabeth Crapeau.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Robert and Helen Richardson; his two brothers, Jerry Richardson and Allen Richardson; and his sister, Thelma Jean Richardson.

A graveside service will be held on Thursday, July 30, 2026 at 12:00 PM at Calvary Cemetery in Tomahawk, Wisconsin.
