<div itemprop="description">Charles Frederick Richardson, age 93, of London, Ontario died October 11, 2015 with his beloved family by his side. Born July 19, 1922 in St. Stephen, New Brunswick, he was the son of the late Frederick E. Richardson and Hazel (Thompson) Richardson. <br /> <br />Charlie served as a Major in the North Shore Regiment for the Canadian Armed Forces during WWII, and was a D-day veteran who was among the first wave to land on Juno Beach. He was happily married to his childhood sweetheart, Margery, for 66 years. <br /> <br />Charlie&rsquo;s heart overflowed with love, gratitude and peace. He would be quick to tell you that his admirable qualities came from knowing his Lord Jesus. We are confident he is with his precious Lord right now and one day he will have a body that death cannot touch. We are grieving and rejoicing so greatly right now that our hearts can hardly handle it. He leaves behind a legacy of lives that are forever changed from knowing him. <br /> <br />Charlie is survived by his wife, Margery; daughter, Ruth (Tom) Miles; daughter-in-law Sandra Richardson; grandchildren Dodie (Ian) Bates, Tara Richardson, Jacob (Dana) Miles, Hailey (Mike) Carnegie, Joel (Anna) Miles; and 9 great-grandchildren Caileigh and Aselin Bates, Ezra, Adah and Bryn Miles, Charles, Haddon and Georgia Carnegie, and Henry Miles. Charlie was preceded in death by his brother James, his sisters Lois and Helen, and his son James. <br /> <br />A memorial service will be held at 11:00 a.m., Thursday October 15, 2015 at Northpark Community Church on 1510 Fanshawe Park Road East, London. Visitation services will be held on Wednesday October 14, 2015 from 2:00-4:00 p.m. and 7:00-9:00 p.m. at Memorial Funeral Home on 1559 Fanshawe Park Road East, London.
