On December 16, 2018, our beloved Bruce Allen Simpson raced his final lap, passed his final checkered flag, and waved goodbye to many that loved him.
Bruce passed away in the comfort of his home in Twin Lakes, Idaho.
He is survived by his loving wife Pamela Kay; his three daughters, Heidi (Carl), Krista (Rudy), and Kassi (Jeremiah); his three granddaughters, Kaylee, Kiersten, and Kora.
Bruce's love extended beyond the doors of his home. He is going to be missed dearly by his 'boys' John Dahl, Shawn Priest, and Chuck Nelson. His love for the Robideaux Family will never be forgotten.
Bruce is survived by sister Beverly (Bob) and the Braig Family, as well as his sister Kathi (Jerry) and the Mahon Family.
The amount of loved ones that will carry the stories and memories of Bruce is a blessedly long list.
Bruce proudly served his country with The United States Air Force (1960-1964) during the Vietnam War.
His 75 years of life started out in Montana and spread over many States. His life left memorable foot prints, was full of adventure, colorful, and loud.
His lap and snuggle buddies Huey and Oliver continue to check for him up at the shop.
In his scruffy voice, and cheeky smile, "All right then... Luv ya... I'll talk at ya later."
A public viewing will be held at English Funeral Chapel, Post Falls; 1700 N. Spokane St, Post Falls, ID 83854 from 2:00 pm 8:00 pm on Thursday, December 20, 2018 with military honors to take place at 8:00 pm.
