Charles (Chuck) Edward Richter Iii

On Friday, March 27, 2020 Charles (Chuck) Edward Richter III, 65, of Gainesville passed from this life after a lengthy illness. No formal visitation or services are planned.

Chuck was born on March 7, 1955 in Camden, New Jersey to Charles Edward Richter, Jr and Florence Mary (DuPell) Richter. The Richter family moved from South Jersey to Gainesville in 1973 where his father was originally from. Once in Texas, Chuck immediately acquired a fascination with the weather. He could often be found watching weather reports and peering out the doors and windows whenever a storm was brewing. He was the family weatherman! Chuck also loved the Philadelphia Eagles but had a heart for the Dallas Cowboys too.

Chuck is survived by his wife of 35 years Gwen Richter; daughter Angela Stone of Gainesville; sister Donna Keller and her husband George of Krugerville; sister Linda Grubbs and her husband David of Decatur; sister Sue Yeida and her husband Randy of Mount Vernon, IN; sister Jeanne Dyer of Mount Vernon, IN; granddaughter Jessica Stone of Irving; grandson Zachary Stone of Lubbock; cousins Lynne Compton and husband Michael of Gainesville and Jeri Mullins of Gainesville, as well as nine nieces and nephews.

He was preceded in death by both parents and cousin Jeffrey Wheeler.

A memorial service to celebrate his life will be held at a later date.
