GoFundMe Established For Late Northview Football Player’s Family
February 26, 2019
The Northview Quarterback Club has organized a GoFundMe for the family of Darionte Richardson, the player who passed away earlier this month.
Richardson suffered a heart attack hours after the Chiefs’ Northview first round playoff win over Graceville November 9. The Chiefs’ #10 passed away on February 4 at a Birmingham hospital. He made several key plays for Northview in their win against Graceville but was not injured in the game.
The morning after the game, the 16-year old was found at home not breathing. His mother performed CPR until an ambulance arrived. He was transported to Atmore Community Hospital and airlifted to a Mobile hospital.
As the Chiefs advanced to route two of the playoffs against Baker, they dedicated the game to Richardson.
