Richelle Henwood Obituary (1987 - 2019)

Richelle Elizabeth Henwood returned home to her Heavenly Father in the early morning hours of November 1, 2019. She passed peacefully in her sleep at home lying next to her Mother. Richelle was born on November 26, 1987 to Rick and Cassi Henwood in Salt Lake City, Utah. Richelle, born with Special Needs, faced many challenges. Her mission on this earth was to teach, bless, humble, and bring joy to those that knew her. All were captured by her mischievous, fun-loving personality. You couldn’t help but love and adore her. She had many friends, teachers, and caretakers throughout her life that always treated her with kindness and compassion. Richelle graduated from Tooele High School in 2008 and touched many people’s lives along the way. Her favorite things in life were her Mother, big sister and family, Rhonda Blanton and her family (close friend and aide), soda pop, snacks, magazines, music, horses, and most of all her iPad. Richelle is survived by her parents, Rick and Cassi Henwood, big brother Jason Lloyd, big sister Heather (Jerel) Fisher, and little brother Weston (Ashton) Henwood, 5 nephews and 2 nieces; grandparents Dick and Virginia Hall, and Louise Pledge. She was preceded in death by her big sister, Melinda Lloyd, and grandparents Richard and Leone Henwood. The Viewing will be Tuesday, November 5th, 2019 at Tate Mortuary from 6-8pm.
