Youngsville – A Fire Fighter's funeral service will be held at 10:00AM, Thursday, December 24, 2009 at St. Anne's Catholic Church for Jason Dale Simon, 52 who passed away on December 21, 2009 at 1:45PM at his home surrounded by his loved ones. Reverend Jason Mouton will conduct the funeral services. The family requests that visiting hours be observed on Wednesday, December 23, 2009 from 10:00AM until 9:00PM with a Rosary at 7:00PM. Visitation will resume on Thursday from 8:00AM until time of services. Youngsville Fire Engine 602 will be used to carry Chief Simon from the funeral home to the church. Burial services will take place in St. Anne's Mausoleum.
Jason was born in Lafayette on October 1, 1957 and lived in Youngsville for the majority of his life. He lived his dream of being a fire fighter. He volunteered in the Youngsville Fire Department in 1975 and was elected Fire Chief in 1991 and continued until the present. He also made a career choice to join the Lafayette Fire Department in 1986 and was serving as Captain until his recent illness. Through his dedication he earned an Associate Degree in Fire Science. His devotion to the fire service was obvious in the many ways he served his community and alongside the brotherhood in helping to save lives.
Jason's hobbies included hunting, fishing, camping and also consisted of beekeeping and processing honey, as well as making biodiesel fuel. He will be sadly missed by his children and especially his grandchildren and all the fun they shared together. He was looking forward to the birth of his 9th grandchild. Jason will always be remembered as a man of few words . . . with a very big heart.
He is survived by his wife of 22 years, Trudy Thibodeaux Simon of Youngsville; his sons, Jared Simon and wife Lisa of Broussard and Jacob Simon and wife Heather of Youngsville; his stepson, Eric Latiolais and wife Ashley of Youngsville; his stepdaughter, Jessica Savoie and husband Jeremy of Carencro. He is also survived by eight grandchildren, Grant Simon, Riley and Raynee Simon, Bryce, Jace, and Kamryn Latiolais, Breckin and Elliott Savoie. He is survived by his parents, John Clyde and Marie Roy Simon of Youngsville; his sisters, Wanda Robbins and husband Robbie, and Donna Menard and husband Todd; and one brother, Kevin Simon and wife Stacey; along with nieces, nephews, and his Godparents, Annie Derouen and Donald Simon; and his best friend and dog, Roux.
In 1986 Jason married into the family of John Berchman (deceased) and Mildred Dugas Thibodeaux, who had 12 children. Jason is survived by all of Trudy's siblings, Dena Briley, Merv (Phil) Cron, Kenneth, Erroll, and Davis Thibodeaux, Susan (Randy) Fontenot, Vicky Dohmann, Ricky (Ellen) Thibodeaux, Tama (Dickie) Collier, Gayle Olivar and Sheila Thibodeaux (Richard Inman).
He was preceded in death by his grandparents, Clement and Eunice Reaux Simon and Clebe Roy and Amy Breaux Roy Broussard; his uncle, Jeffery Derouen; and his brother-in-law, Eddie Briley.
Pallbearers will be the Lafayette Fire Department Honor Guard.
The family would like to thank Dr. Pernell Simon, Dr. Alan Appley, Dr. David Caletri, Dr. Joseph Brierre and Hospice of Acadiana for all they have done to help extend our time with Jason. The family also thanks everyone who took the time to visit and assist us during this difficult time.
Trudy would like to personally thank the men and women of the Youngsville Fire Department for all the help given to her in her time of need and especially her friend, Kerri, whom she could not have done without her tremendous support.
The Youngsville Fire Department will be hosting a reception at the fire station, 300 Fountainview Drive in Youngsville after Chief Simon is laid to rest.
David Funeral Home of Lafayette, 316 Youngsville Hwy., 837-9887, is in charge of the arrangements.
