Mr. Simpkins and I worked together at Bottenfield Middle School. He always brought a smile into the building. He would peek his head in and inquire about the students from his bus route. He did that because we cared darely for them. That was the type of man he was. After attending his funeral on Tuesday, I knew he was indeed a true man of God, because everyone said the same thing. Mr. Simpkins was a good man! We will miss him!!!

Mr Simpkins will truly be missed. As with many youth growing up at Sardis, his love, support, and Christian example helped to shape me and my sister into the women we are today. Our prayers are with the Simpkins family.
