Marissa Shanease Richardson, 18, of Hollister, North Carolina, affectionately known as "Froot", was born June 6, 1995 to William and Sheila Richardson in Rocky Mount, North Carolina. She departed this earthly life on March 10, 2014 in Warrenton, North Carolina.
She accepted Christ and was baptized at the age of seven. Marissa was an active member of the Pine Chapel Baptist Church, and also faithfully participated in the Junior Choir.
Marissa was reared in Hollister, North Carolina and received her education from the Halifax County Public School System. She was a proud Cadet Staff Sergeant of the Junior Reserved Officer Training Corp (JROTC). Marissa was an avid volleyball player during her last two years of high school.
She enjoyed spending time with her family and friends. Her smile was infectious and bright enough to light up a room. Her hobbies included her love of nail designing and creative hair styling. Marissa approached each day with a carefree spirit, unwilling to be deterred with life's many challenges.
