William David Simmons' Obituary
David Simmons was called home to be with Christ on June 9, 2020. He was born to William C. Simmons and Mary H. Simmons in 1943 in Danville, OH. In 1958, David moved into Beverly Farms located in Godfrey, IL just prior to his family moving to Memphis, TN where David spent his summers and holidays. Being differently abled, David’s joy and love was an incomparable blessing to those he encountered. His love of music, vacuum cleaners, new cars and pretty girls filled his days with peace and grace. David is survived by his sister Becky and her husband Malcolm Morris of Houston, TX and his sister in law, Carol Simmons and their families. David will be laid to rest at Memorial Park Cemetery, preceded by his mother, father and brother, J.C. Simmons. A graveside service will be held on Monday, June 15th, 2020. We cannot express enough thanks to all the caregivers that have loved David over the years and pray you have experienced his reciprocal love and compassion. In lieu of flowers, the family requests contributions to be made in David’s name to his home of many years, Beverly Farm (www.beverlyfarm.org).
