It is with great sadness that we inform you of the loss of longtime Anderson 3 employee and friend, Mr. (Coach) David Richardson. David was an integral part of Anderson 3 and Crescent High School for over 30 years. He was a bus driver, instructional assistant, facilities handyman, coach of multiple sports, and friend to everyone that met him. David will be forever known for his kind spirit, gentle heart, and warm hugs. He never hesitated to lend a hand to anyone and truly exemplified the spirit of Crescent High School and Anderson 3. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family and friends as they navigate the days ahead.
