Alan Simpson Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
Senator Simpson will lie in honor at the Wyoming Capitol from 9am to 8 pm on Thursday, March 27 and 7am to 2pm on Friday, March 28, 2025.
A Celebration of Life in Laramie will be held on the University of Wyoming campus at the Arena Auditorium at 11am on Saturday, March 29, 2025.
In Cody, services will then be held on Monday, March 31, 2025 at 10am. Because of the restrictive size of Senator Simpson's church, the Chapel will be reserved seating and the community is welcome to gather in the Fellowship Hall until it is full. The community is also welcome to gather for a live-stream of the services at the Coe Auditorium in the Buffalo Bill Center of the West and at the Wynona Thompson Auditorium at Cody High School. Everyone is invited to the open house at the museum following the service.
The Cody and Laramie events will be broadcast live on TV and can be streamed online via Wyoming PBS.
Senator Simpson's family extends their deepest gratitude for your expressions of sympathy.

Ann and Family,
