It is with heavy hearts, yet humble submission to the will of God, that we announce the passing of our beloved Mrs. Frances Jean Simpson, who peacefully departed this life on April 10, 2026, at the age of 88.

 

Mrs. Simpson was a woman of unwavering faith, grace, strength, and quiet warmth. She lived a life rooted in love and devotion, reflecting God’s light through her kindness, wisdom, and gentle spirit. Her presence was a blessing to all who knew her, and her legacy of faith and love will continue to shine for generations to come.

 

She leaves behind to carry on her legacy: her devoted daughter, Mrs. Theresa Miller; her cherished grandchildren, Mr. Chris Moody, Sr. (Kera), Mr. Jamell Miller, Sr., Mr. Jamario Miller (Jene), Chris Moody, Jr., Malik Moody, Christaysia Moody, Christina Moody, Te’yana Miller, David Miller, Jalicia Miller, Jamell Miller, Jr., Jamario Miller, Jr., and Jamani Miller; her two special sisters, Beryl Dandy and Beverly Orr; her beloved cousins, Kenneth Dandy (Terri) and Janice Dandy-Harris; along with a host of other loving family members and dear friends.

 

Though she has entered into eternal rest, we rejoice in the promise of God’s word, knowing that to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord.

“Well done, thy good and faithful servant…enter thou into the joy of thy Lord.” – Matthew 25:23

We find comfort in knowing that her soul now rests in eternal peace, and her love will remain in our hearts forever.
