Obituary

It is with great sorrow we announce the passing of our beloved Shiloh. Shiloh Tommy Richardson, 37, of
Midland, Texas, passed away on 11/16/2021 at Baylor All Saints Hospital in Fort Worth, Texas.
He was born to parents Candance Parker and Brady Richardson, on 09/13/1984 in Midland, Texas.
Lovingly raised by grandparents Roy and Phyllis Richardson.

Brought up in a Christian school, Shiloh loved the Lord and was one of the kindest people. He was always
willing to pray for you, lend a helping hand, or give you the very shirt off of his back.
Shiloh was born in Midland, Texas but had a strong, innate desire to travel the world.

He joined The United States Marine Corps 01/20/2004 and was able to fulfill his dream to serve his
beloved country and travel the world. He quickly gained the rank of CPL and was a 3531 motor vehicle
operator, driving seven-tons. He was awarded the Sea Service Deployment Ribbon, Global War
Terrorism, Service Medal, National Defense Service Medal, and Expert Rilfe Qualification Badge.

After being honorably discharged on 01/11/2006 Shiloh pursued his lifelong passions of piercing, art, and
tattooing. Shiloh worked for many years as a tattoo artist before his dreams became a reality and he
opened his own shop Heart and Dagger Tattoo in Odessa, Texas, in January of 2018. He was an amazing
tattoo artist who loved what he did. He went above and beyond, always making sure his customers felt
welcome and safe in his shop. Shiloh loved his shop family more than anything and worked day and night
to support not only himself but those around him. Shiloh was known for “erasing hate”, he spent a lot of
time doing cover up tattoos for people that came to regret having hate or racial tattoos. This is
something he did for free. His legacy will live on in his two dearly loved apprentices, who he taught and
trained for the last few years. It was always his hope that they would go forth with joy and purpose,
sharing his passion for art and tattooing.

Shiloh loved life and he lived everyday to the fullest. He had such a voracious hunger for life and
adventure. Many of his hobbies and passions included horse riding, motocross, archery, competitive clay
shooting, fishing and hunting, oil painting, travel, art, playing the violin, and rain or shine cheering for his
beloved New Orleans Saints.

Shiloh later met the love of his life, Sarah Richardson on 11/7/2016 when she came into his shop to get a
tattoo. Although he didn’t speak a single word to her that day, after she left, he said he was going to
marry that girl. They were married on 03/10/2018 on Inishmore Island, Ireland.

Shiloh is survived by Sarah Richardson, wife, Candance & Scott Parker, mom and stepdad, Brady
Richardson, father, Phyllis Richardson, Grandmother, Chrystal Cross and Clint, sister and brother-in-law,
Clayton Richardson, brother, Corey Baker, brother, Shaun and Danielle Sanders, brother and sister-in-law,
Trina and Coby Easterwood, aunt and uncle, Stacee Crabtree, niece, Lainee Easterwood, niece, Toree
Easterwood, niece, Collin Cross, nephew, Kendall Cross, niece, Wesson Sanders, nephew.

He also leaves behind too many friends to list around the world. He left an impact on everyone that he
met, even if it was a brief encounter. Shiloh never met a stranger in his life, his heart was always full of
laughter and friendship. He will be deeply missed by all who knew him.

The family has entrusted North Dallas Funeral Home with the arrangements. The family encourages all
who knew Shiloh to attend to share memories and celebrate his life.

Funeral Services have been entrusted to North Dallas Funeral Home. A Celebration of Life Service will be held on Saturday, December 11 ,2021 at Aria Cremation and Funeral Services located at 1820 N Beltline Rd. Irving, TX 75061.

    One of my greatest friends I met in the Marine Corps. Always in a great mood and more than willing to bring the laughs. I will miss him greatly and I wish my condolences to his family. He will be missed.

"I highly recommend this funeral home and crematorium; when I had to make and pay for my brother’s arrangements across state lines, Evelyn Montonya, in particular, demonstrated both compassion and professionalism and made a very sad and difficult situation much easier. Many thanks."

"The unexpected passing of my husband was a very difficult and trying time for my boys and I. I had the good fortune of having Abel walk us thru this process. Working with him was such a weight off my shoulders. He was professional, so polite and helpful. The service was beautiful – never did I feel rushed or like just another customer. They gave me the time I needed and I appreciate that so much! Also Mr. Brooks took special care of my husband as he is a fellow mason. I would highly recommend working with Abel and North Dallas Funeral Home."

"As soon as the call was made to Mr. Wayne Baxter all of my brothers final needs were taken care of. They walked me through what to expect the timeline and even dealt with the cemetery and the grave diggers. I was a hot mess due to my brothers sudden and unexpected passing. The experience was seamless and made it easy for my brother’s friends and family to say their last goodbyes. They even had the size to accommodate such a large group that showed up . The package deals that they offered were cost-effective and didn’t break my bank account. They included extras and accommodations that other funeral homes charged extra for. All the staff was amazing including Mr. Don Dodd . I can not thank them enough for all their help."

Dear John,

It was such a nice pleasure to meet you, and what you had planned for my father just took my breath away. It was so special to hear you tell us how he would just come over to talk with you. I think it brought him much comfort. Tha you for putting that Air Force article of him on your website. I am going to have a replica made of the painting of his plane to give you.

Thank you again for all you have done to honor our dad.

Love, The Gillilands
