Help Us Lay Matthew Simmons to Rest

Donation protected
My name is Tina Phillips and This is one of the hardest things I've ever had to do. My family and I are asking for prayers and donations to bury my baby brother Matthew Simmons. Wednesday night 3/26/25 he had an incident. He went to the hospital and was treated immediately and then came back home and went to sleep. He was asleep for half the day Thursday while being checked on. About 1pm Thursday evening I was leaving work and got a phone call saying our brother found him with purple lips and no pulse. He immediately called the ambulance again. They got a pulse in the ambulance, but once at the hospital his heart stopped twice, was brain dead and on a ventilator. His dad went up to the hospital to be with him since our mom was not able to being in the hospital herself and sadly was faced with the decision to pull the plug at 8:54 pm Thursday night March 27,2025.
With everything that has been going on with our mother lately this was very unexpected and the hardest thing in the world to my grandma, my siblings and I.
Matthew Simmons was only 20 years old and has a 3 year son. It wasn't his time to go and he didn't deserve this. He had a bright long life ahead of him. He was working two jobs before this. Jiffy lube and Popeyes in collierville Tennessee. Matthew will be miss by many..
We are asking for mainly prayers in this time of need. Any donations also will be greatly appreciated towards a burial and service. He deserves that and his mom and dad need closure. Anything helps. Thank you
Rip and fly high Matthew Lee Simmons
You will be loved and missed always by many. Big sis loves you baby bro..
Watch over your lil boy and all of us
