Richardson, stepfather, Darnell Richardson, his sister, Latoya S. Steptoe; brother-in-law, Michael A. Steptoe II; niece, Mikaila A. Steptoe; nephew, Jalen K. Steptoe; his four stepsiblings Rodriguez, Doniel, Darnell JR, and Crystal Richardson; paternal cousins, Charles E. Oliver and Gale Whitehead, and a host of aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends including Nicole Hall (Director of Fairfax Nursing Center).
He was the kindest person anyone could come across. He was such a hard worker man. You are forever missed Demetrius. you are in a better place
Dear Dear Family of Demetrius. We send our sincere sympathy to you all on the loss of your dear Demetrius. We live on the corner where his unfortunate accident happened and are relieved to finally find an obituary where we can say how sad it made us to read where he lost his life. Yes, the police report said "speed" but we have lots of deer here and they've caused accidents. He must have been familiar with the turn. No doubt you have asked the "why" question over and over. May he rest in peace and you find closure.
Our staff will continue to keep your family in our prayers. We thank you for allowing us to serve your family.
