Delina Rose Jude Richardson of Georgetown Kentucky, formerly of Matewan, WV born on February 28, 1979 departed this earthly world on October 8, 2016 at her home in Georgetown, Kentucky.
Delina was preceded in death by her maternal grandmother Betty Ruth Smith, her maternal grandfathers Emmit Gibson and Clifton Garner Edwards, special aunt Valerie Lynn Gibson and special uncle Michael Ray Workman.

Delina is survived by her precious daughter, the light of her life, Chelsea Breanna and her husband Robbie Richardson. She was the loving daughter of Pamela Edwards Jude & Steve Jackson and Danny & Norma Jude; she is also survived by her paternal grandparents John and Mary Vivian Jude of Williamson, WV. Delina was the devoted sister of Deidra Renay Jude, Danielle Nicole Jude, Chad (Jennifer) Jude, Jill (Shaun) Strange and Jessica Jude. She was the daughter-in-law of Glen and Sharon Richardson and leaves behind a host of aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews, cousins and friends. In addition she is survived by her step-siblings with whom she grew up and loved dearly, Doug Kellione, Mark Kellione, Roger Kellione, Jason Kellione and Kassondra Kellione.

Delina was a sweet soul with a warm and giving heart and an infectious smile and laughter that would fill a room. Delina loved her family & her fur babies, she loved vacations at the beach, cheering on her UK Wildcats and she loved spending time with her loved ones. Fall was her favorite season.

She was a 1997 graduate of Magnolia High School in Matewan, WV where she was a member of the National Honor Society and graduated in the top ten of her class.

Delina had a loving and supportive family and if love could have saved her she would still be here. No one knows what a soul struggles with internally and for the past few years Delina has struggled with drug addiction that ultimately took her life. We, her family, know that our sweet Delina was so much more than the horrible disease that took her from us. We wish to recall upon the happy times. Her battle is over now and she now at peace free from the prison that she was living in within herself. Please don't pass judgement on those fighting the fight. Pray for them and love them.

A celebration of life service will be held on Saturday, November 5th at 3 pm at The Matewan United Methodist Church at 4749 First Avenue in Matewan, WV.
