Jacob "Jake" Gerald Simmons

He is survived by his mother Debbie, sister Katie (Craig), paternal grandmother Betty, and many aunts, uncles, cousins and their extended families. He was predeceased by his father Jerry, grandparents Gerald, Bernice (Ernie) and Jack. Jake was kindhearted, funny and devoted to his family and friends, from Fairview and beyond.

He had a love for football “Go Raiders” and had played for the Halifax West Warriors, winning the Provincial Football Championship in grade 12. He was so proud. He worked with heavy equipment in Alberta for several years after finishing high school. He had a huge love and bond with his dogs Ozzie and Ruby, who were always by his side.

We are so devastated and heartbroken, more than words can say. Rest in peace Jake, until we are together again.
