Subdeacon George J. Simon Sr.

So sad to hear the news of Mr. Simon's passing. May his family be blessed and comforted by the many, many of us who enjoyed his company and wonderful stories of his wife, children and grandchildren. Heaven just received a larger than life, big-hearted, angel who just happened to love being a produce guy! We will keep you all in our prayers.

Tony, Mary and all the Simons,

We were saddened to hear about your loss. George's passing is a tremendous loss to your family and the community. We will keep you in our prayers

So sorry to hear of George's passing. I knew him working at the Railroad (Accounting ) & always stopped in his Produce stand at Soulard Market. I am so sorry for the family's loss.

From all of us at Sal's Produce, Med said it right. We will all miss you and your unique personality. You are the original CUZ OF THE Market. To George, SALUTE! Warmly, Med and Sally, Rosina, George [at the donut stand] and Frankie.

What a character this man was. The last ICON of Soulard Market has passed away. A great loss for the market. George's diligence to selling produce at the market was raved about for decades. George's career at the Market started under the tutelage of Salvatore Inserra, when George came to St. Louis as a teenager and worked for the Inserras' where he learned all the ropes and angles of selling and hawking produce and the like.

Prayers of strength to your entire family during this difficult time. You will be missed Mr.George.

Our deepest condolences to the entire Simon family for your loss.

Teresa, I did not know your Dad, but he had to be a fabulous person to have all you children and grandchildren who loved him so much. God bless you at this time. You and your entire family are in my prayers.

So sorry for your loss, Prayers to the Simon family. He was a very nice man. God be with the family . RIP
