Lynn Gene Simmons passed away February 21, 2023 at the age of 88. He was born January 16,1935 in Brownfield, Texas. After graduating from Texas A&M, he moved back to San Angelo to begin his career at General Telephone Company. Lynn also served three years in the National Guard at the beginning of his career. He met the love of his life and soul mate Jean who he was married to for 59 years and they made a wonderful life for themselves in San Angelo. When Jean died, his world fell apart but he continued to fight on and be the best daddy, granddaddy and great granddaddy anyone could wish for. Lynn was preceded in death by his loving wife Jean, his mother Voncile Gauntt and brother Knox Williams. He is survived by his brother Monte Williams of San Antonio; children Pam Baker and husband Bev of Baton Rouge, Steven Simmons and wife Linda of North Richland Hills; grandchildren Lyndi Shill & husband Dex of Baton Rouge, Logan Baker & wife Eleanor of Denver, Matt Simmons & wife Anna of Memphis & Austin Simmons of Houston; great grandchildren Sophia & Sloane Shill, Eden & Luca Simmons, brother in law Dale Burks & wife Larue. The family would like to thank the wonderful staff at Regency House and Shannon Hospital who made his last days as comfortable as possible. We will miss him terribly but rejoice in where he is.

The family has chosen to have a private celebration of his life.
