I am so sorry to hear of docs passing. he treated 3 generations of my family and we loved respected him. I remember sitting in his waiting room scared as a child, but once I was in the treatment room, he would come in with that smile and I knew he could make me better. Later in life when I had children I never had any doubt when they came down with something who could cure them. Rest well my friend you will be missed.
Peace of mind is a call away. We’re here when you need us most.

Dr. Simpao was my doctor for many years, but the memory I have is the time in 1984 when he diagnosed me with Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever. As soon as he looked at me he said, "you look like that you have been bit by a tick." So he did some blood test and the results from those, he sent me straight to hospital. He said it would take ten days to get results, so he was going to treat me as I had it and if he didn't that I could be dead before he got the results. I was in hospital twelve days and on the tenth day he came in my room kind of of dancing and teasing with my mother, saying: I told you, I told you, it was Rocky Mtn. spotted fever. With God's help he kept me alive. He was a great doctor and wonderful with his patients. I am truly sorry for your loss and will pray for all of you. And that was the best obituary I have ever read. God bless!

Phillip, I'm so sorry to hear of the passing of your father. He was lived by the community. Hats off to who ever penned his obituary- it's beautifully done (I cried). Our family is praying for you.

Our entire family received care from Dr Simpao almost from the time of the opening of his practice in Central City. He delivered our son Jason in 1975. Terry and I were sad to hear of his passing, but he left a legacy of caring. We'll miss him.

For Phillip, my son, Rod Hearld, was a buddy to you and Tony Eaves in grade school... He always loved going with you and loved it when your dad was part of the group. He passed away 11/21/97 in auto accident in California. But talked of the three of you throughout his life. God bless you all. You had a wonderful dad.

I met Dr Simpao before I met my own mom on May 5, 1972. He delivered me and was my doctor until the early 90s. I saw him at a gas station just a few years ago and he remembered me well and was as kind and happy as ever. Rest in Jesus' loving arms doc!
