With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of Shane Simmer on March 20, 2026. Born on July 25, 1977, Shane graced the lives of many with his friendly and kind-hearted nature. Shane's life, though cut too short, was about the joys of the simple life. He loved to be outdoors hunting or fishing, at home on his couch watching football—especially his favorite team, the Pittsburgh Steelers—or in his bed reading a good Louis L'Amour book. Shane was most proud of his son, Devon Simmer, who survives him. He found immense pride and satisfaction in fatherhood and cherished every moment of it. A son's love was his greatest achievement and one he held close to his heart till the very end.

I am Bob Simmers' (Shane's Dad) sister-in-law and am helping our family during this difficult time. Unfortunately, Shane did not have life insurance, so our family is facing unexpected expenses. The funds raised will go directly toward cremation and memorial services, helping us honor Shane's memory and give him the farewell he deserves. Any support, no matter how small, will make a meaningful difference for our family during this difficult time.

On behalf of the entire Simmer family, thank you for your prayers and support. Your kindness and generosity mean more to us than words can express.
