After a fairly short but hard fought battle, Michael Dale Simpson (Simmy) aged 56 passed away peacefully on Monday November 10, 2025 at his home surrounded by family and close friends. 

Mike was a devoted husband and father. He had a passion for fishing, hunting and RC cars. These hobbies brought him joy.

Mike is survived by his wife Dina of 30 years, his daughter Breanna, brother Chris (Tiffany) Simpson, sister Valerie (David) Mathis, brother William (Sheri) Woolard and many nieces, nephews, cousins, aunts, and non blood related brothers and sisters.

Mike is preceded in death by his father Jesse Dale Simpson and his mother Sharon K. Brady Simpson.

Mike touched the lives of all who knew him. His spirit will be deeply missed but never forgotten by his family and friends. His memory will forever remain in our hearts.  

A celebration of life will be announced at a later date.
