A Harold Simmons (File photo
The death of anyone is especially hard to bear around the holidays. It is with this in mind that we truly regret to report that philanthropist Harold Simmons died Saturday night.
Both Harold and his wife Annette have become synonymous with philanthropy through their donations and support of numerous nonprofits.
And while his blues eyes will no longer twinkle nor his smile brighten a room, his contributions to the North Texas charities and the thousands they benefit will live on.
Our deepest condolences are extended to his family, who only this past year also suffered the loss of Harold’s brother, Glenn Simmons.
UPDATE: Harold Simmons’ memorial service will take place at 2 p.m. on Thursday, January 2, at Park Cities Baptist Church.
