My heartfelt sympathy is with you. He was a good man and I have lots of great memories of him in the schools and working with him. Bette Johnson
We're so sorry for your loss. We will miss him visiting in Hot Springs. Please know that we are thinking of you. Love, Millie
Mrs. Brunette, my thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family. I had the pleasure of knowing Mr. Simmons and he never shied away from a conversation. I've always known him to be kind at heart.
Brunette and Family. I, along w/my children Pat, Chris, Carin & Matt Dorman, extend our deepest regrets for your loss. Mr. Simmons contributed so much to public education in St. Tammany Parish. He was always so supportive of PTA activities. I have to laugh when I recall some of my brilliant ideas that turned out to be not so brilliant... but he went along w/me and was willing to "give it a try" I know he will be missed, but will remain in all our hearts.
Brunette, our sincerest condolences and thoughts to you and your family during this time. Your husband was a wonderful man and did so much for everyone. He will be missed. Scott and Janice Bordelon (KOE)
