Billy Leon Simpson, 74, of Benton, Arkansas was born to the late, Willie Simpson and Juanita (Birdwell) Simpson, on Tuesday, February 14th, 1950, in Beebe, Arkansas.

Billy has entered heaven and now is with his wife of 50 years, Nancy Simpson; his parents; grandson, Zachary Corp; two brothers, James and Ronnie Simpson; and all his other family and friends who passed before him.

Left to cherish his memory and carry on his legacy are his son, Michael Leon Simpson; his two daughters, Lisa Finney and her husband, Kevin, and Regina Corp and her husband, Tom; six beautiful grandchildren, Todd, Bethany, L Jay, Thomas, Alyssa, and Tessa; and one great grandson on the way; three brothers, O'Neal, Robert, and Terry Simpson; with a host of family and friends who all love him and will miss him dearly.
