On Saturday, December 7, 2019 at 11:30 p.m. Our Lord decided to call his loving son home. Mr. Shadrick Rocha Simmons was born September 26, 1980 to Mr. Bobby L. Nichols and Ms. Barbara Simmons in Jackson, Mississippi. He accepted Christ at a young age at Mount Galilee M.B. Church where he was baptized in the name of Jesus. Shadrick attended Jackson Public School in Hinds County. He attended Martin Headstart, George and Isabale Elementary, Peoples Middle School and Jim Hill High. Later on he received his G.E.D. and went and had many opportunities from painting to brick laying, sheet rock, pouring concrete later receiving his C.D.L. He never got a chance to drive for man, but instead he drove for God. Shadrick gave his life to Christ, and fell in love with Jesus.
