Antonio Jarrod Victor Simon

Antonio was born in Killeen, Texas on December 5, 1999 to parents David Simon and Erica Andrews. Antonio was about to enter his senior year at Streetsboro High School and very much looking forward to playing the drums this fall for the Rockets. He loved music and had played the drums since fourth grade. An accomplished drummer he made the drum line as a freshman which is very rare. Antonio also liked sports, especially football, soccer and track. He also enjoyed his association and involvement with his church youth group. Antonio was a very charismatic and outgoing soul and always saw the best in everyone. He was a good son and brother and loved his family.

Antonio is survived by his parents, David (Mariya) Simon and Erica (Stephen Crawford) Andrews. Left also to cherish his memory are his brothers: Kevion Capers, Demitri Simon; sister Aliona Simon and uncles: Aaron Andrews & Stanford Simon, his grandparents: Paula Baker, Stanley and Angela Simon and great-grandmother Sue Baker and many loving uncles, aunts and cousins.

He was preceded in death by his grandfather Russell Baker.
