Richard Burwell Obituary

With heavy hearts, we announce the death of Richard Burwell of Saint Joseph, Illinois, who passed away on December 26, 2025 at the age of 76. Leave a sympathy message to the family on the memorial page of Richard Burwell to pay them a last tribute.

As we bid Richard farewell, let us not mourn the absence of his physical form, but rather celebrate the essence of his spirit that lingers in the spaces between moments. For Richard is not truly gone, but merely transformed, his energy intertwined with the fabric of the universe itself, forever dancing among the stars.

He was loved and cherished by many people including: his parents, William Ardie and Helen Marie Burwell (Perkins); his wife Paula Burwell (Hartrick); and his siblings, Allen Burwell (Pam) of South Daytona, FL and Teresa Twigg (Tom) of Thomasboro, IL. He was also cherished by several nephews, nieces and great nieces, along with many extended family.

In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions can be made to the Parkinson's Foundation – http://www.parkinson.org.
