I am very sorry to hear about Dave's transitioning. He was as genuinely good man interested in the well being of youth through his track program. To his family and children, please accept my sincere condolences.
Wow, I was not prepared to see this today. David, you were a good person. Our sincere condolences to your family. Rest in Heavenly Peace. You now have your wings 🪽 🪽
Deepest condolences to the family. Big Dave made a name for himself at USATf. Dave was a great Track Coach.
My heartfelt condolences to the Simpson family. David was my classmate and always seemed to be years a head of everyone else. He was a natural leader, always poised and measured. It came as no surprise to me the success he had as a coach. I will always remember our last conversation at the class of '81 reunion in 2021. He talked about his grandchildren. May God Bless this family during this difficult time. Rest In Paradise Hometown🙏🏽
To the Simpson Family, Sending my heartfelt condolences to you all during this difficult time. I am praying that God gives each of you the strength, comfort, and peace you need in the days ahead. Please know that you are in my thoughts, and I am lifting your family up in prayer.
My deepest condolences and prayers for the Simpson family. May God comfort the family and friends during this difficult time.
Dad, I miss you so much already. I wish I had one more hug, one more conversation, and one more chance to tell you how much I love you. Thank you for being my father. I'll make you proud. I love you forever.
Our staff will continue to keep your family in our prayers. We thank you for allowing us to serve your family.
