DAVID N. SIMCOX
Shellsburg
David N. Simcox, 63, of Shellsburg, Iowa, took his final breath surrounded by his loved ones. The sun rose and the world welcomed Dave on Aug. 15, 1957, a day that the world became a little brighter.
Dave lived a full life, filled with joy, happiness and kindness. He will be fondly remembered and sorely missed. On April
21, 2001, Dave married the love of his life, Connie Bernet.
It is Dave's request for no services at
this time.
Dave loved competing in Bass Pro tournaments, golfing, and he was an avid Iowa Hawkeyes and New England Patriots fan.
Those left to cherish Dave's memory are his wife, Connie; sons, Matthew and David Simcox; his parents, Terry and Jan Simcox; his sister, Sandy Thomas; a nephew, Brett Billman; and a niece, Amy Negly.
Dave was preceded in death by his brother, Steve; his grandparents, Ned, Mildred Simcox, Lawrence and Ester Heaton; and his mother-in-law, Gloria Bernet, and father-in-law, Skip Bernet.
Memorial contributions may be directed to the family.
The family would like to thank the entire staff at St. Luke's Hospice for the care and support they showed to Dave while he was in their care.
