Noah Lee Simmons, born on January 31, 1954, in Shreveport, Louisiana, passed away peacefully on December 6, 2025, at the age of 71 at Flannery Oaks Guest House. Noah was a man of unique character, known for his strong personality and candid nature. A loner at heart, he often communicated his thoughts with an unfiltered honesty that was both refreshing and sometimes challenging for those around him.
Throughout his life, Noah cherished the simple pleasures, often fondly remembered for riding his bicycle while savoring a cigarette and a drink in hand. He had a flair for conversation, relishing the opportunity to engage in spirited discussions and "talk noise" with those he encountered. His distinctive approach to life left a lasting impression that will be fondly remembered by those who knew him.
Noah is survived by his devoted niece and caregiver, Tiffany Simmons, alongside his siblings. Her loving support in his later years was a source of comfort and companionship for him. While he may have preferred his solitude, his family remained a crucial part of his life, providing him with affection and care.
As we reflect on Noah’s life, we celebrate his individuality, strong spirit, and the moments that defined him. He will be missed but never forgotten, leaving behind memories that will bring smiles and warmth to those who carry his legacy forward.
