Shauna J. Richards, 53, of Harleysville, passed away on Wednesday, April 9, 2025, surrounded by her family.  She was the beloved wife of Gary A. Richards; they would have celebrated 17 years of marriage this June.

Born in Hollywood, Florida, Shauna was the daughter of the late Judith Zimmerman and a 1989 graduate of Milton Hershey School.
