James Simpier Obituary

I have many memories of my brother James in our younger years growing up and the together times we shared fishing, car mechanics, duck pin bowling, hanging out, etc. My brother had some interesting fishing methods of especially catching trout. We had shared some interesting and spirited conversations over time, James in his younger years was an avid pool shark, had his own pool sticks, played at some billard halls and won in many games of the opponent player. In our teen years he also won a couple trophies thru the Boys Club for top Chess and some other trophy status. James played the guitar and liked playing Rock n Roll from the 60s and early 70s. I'll always remember him for the times when we were younger and growing up. Here(photo) most recent with my brother James

My sympathy to Jim's family. Very sorry to hear of his sudden passing. I am a driver for NWTransit, and brought him shopping many times from Kent to New Milford. I will miss his spirited conversations, and his Patriotic views. Always a gentleman. Rest in Peace Jim...

I always remembered Uncle James and how he enjoyed fishing at Black Pond in Meriden catching the trout. He taught us some fishing tips that I never forgot. Some good memories fishing with him there. I remember him fondly in our family visits with grandma Brown (his mother) when he was there living on Elm Street all together and uncle John his brother. He loved his pizzas and would often order the delivery. He will be missed. He will always be my Uncle James.
