Donald Patrick "Patty"/"Patrick" Simpson

March 26, 1965 - June 25, 2023

It is with broken hearts that Pat’s incredible journey has finally come to an end. This happened on Sunday June 25th, 2023 at the age of 58 at Belleville General Hospital.
Pat was born with very challenging conditions which, encompassed a gazillion treatments, medical visits, side effects and long term complications.
Patty was an inspiration who touched the hearts of everyone that crossed his path.
Pat was the fourth child of the late Donny Simpson (2002) and the late Ann Simpson-Neild (2018) and step-son to the late Robert Neild (2021). Brother to PearlAnn (Alan), the late Michael (2008) (Beverley), Alex (Michelle) and Jamie (Bobbie-Jo).
Uncle to Ashley, Phillip, Amanda, Christopher, Adam, Alyssa, Andrew, Austin, Alexandra, Madison and Mason. Great uncle to Wyatt, Eli, Aurora, Megan, Jacob, Tyson and Jaxson.
Patty will be deeply missed and continuously loved by many cousins and friends. His absence will be tremendously missed by the staff at Crown Ridge Nursing Home, Pathways to Independence and Quinte Access Transportation.
The family wishes to extend a heartfelt thanks to QHC Trenton and Belleville especially Dr. Andrew Samis and the nurses in the ICU.
A very special thank you to his “GET OUT OF JAIL” as he referred to his nursing home. To Pathways to Independence in Belleville without them Patrick would not be able to go out on his day events. Scott and Hannah you both are very special kind people.
A visitation will take place at 1pm at MacCoubrey Funeral Home, 30 King Street East Cobourg, on Friday July 7, 2023 followed by sharing of memories at 2pm.
Friends and family are welcome to join the family for a reception in the MacCoubrey Funeral Home Reception Centre where you can continue to share more stories, laugh, cry and remember how Patrick was such a strong willed, tenacious, sneaky character and last but not least what a joker he was.
In lieu of flowers donations may be made to Pathways to Independence.
