Rodney Scott Simpson

Rodney Scott Simpson, age 58, went to be with his heavenly father on Tuesday April 25, 2023 at his home in Alexander County. He was born to the late Defoy Conley Simpson and Frieda Shore Simpson on Monday, October 12, 1964 in Mecklenburg County, NC. Mr. Simpson began working for Tindall Corp. at the age of 19. In 1985, he established a precast concrete company, Carolina Precast Erectors Inc. After several years of hard work he obtained the position of Field Operations Superintendent. He was proud to be part of the Tindall family for more than 30 years. Rodney was a faithful member of East Taylorsville Baptist Church. He was a hard worker and a jack of trades. His greatest pastime was entertaining his grandchildren with crazy antics that left his family in hysterics. He enjoyed motocross, snowboarding, and practiced his creative craftsmanship around the home.
Including his parents, he was preceded in death by an infant brother.
Those left to cherish the memories of Rodney include his wife of 33 years, Amanda Lackey Simpson; daughters, Emily Simpson (fiance Will McCurry), Hillary Montieth (Josh), Rebekah Peterson (Sawyer); son Jeremy Simpson (girlfriend Peyton Moore); brother Bobby Simpson (Monica); sister-in-law, Melissa Deal (Wes); nephews, Alex and Aaron Deal, Nicholas Simpson (fiance Morgan), Ethan Deal; six grandchildren, Lawson and Maddox Montieth, Aubrey, Adley, Lainey, and soon to arrive Meritt Peterson.
