It is with deep sorrow and heavy hearts that we share the passing of Tommie Simpson III, a beloved father, friend, and cherished member of the community, who tragically lost his life on Friday, March 27 in a devastating hit-and-run accident. In a moment that has forever changed our lives, the driver responsible fled the scene, leaving behind not only heartbreak but also painful unanswered questions that continue to weigh on our family.
Tommie was more than a name—he was a source of strength, love, and laughter to everyone who knew him. His kindness was genuine, his presence uplifting, and his support unwavering. Whether through his words, his actions, or simply his smile, Tommie had a way of making people feel seen and valued. Losing him so suddenly has created a void that can never truly be filled.
As we grieve this unimaginable loss, we are also faced with the difficult responsibility of honoring his life in a way that reflects the love he gave so freely. Planning a memorial service during such an emotional time has brought unexpected financial challenges, including funeral costs and travel expenses for family members who wish to gather and say their final goodbyes.
We humbly ask for your support—through prayers; donations; and by sharing this message. Any contribution, no matter how small, will help us give Tommie the farewell he deserves.
If you have any information about the incident, please come forward. Your voice could help bring justice. Thank you for your compassion and support during this painful time.
