December 3, 1957 - January 29, 2025

Judson “Jud” Paul Simon, 67, died Wednesday, January 29, 2025. He was born on December 03, 1957, to Dorothy and Charles Simon, in Winnie.

Judson, better known as “Jud”, was a man of many things. He was a father and grandfather before anything else.

Jud grew up in Winnie, Texas and graduated from East Chambers. He was an avid musician and played the trombone in high school and college, and would brag he had perfect pitch. He went many places throughout the years and did many jobs before finally becoming a contractor. He was known by many to be able to fix things that others could not. He loved trying to solve and fix anything mechanical or otherwise. He was great at giving profound advise whether it was needed or not needed, but made sure to always be heard.

He will be greatly and devastatingly missed by his friends and family.

Adaline: “I love you pawpaw.”

Annabelle: “Thanks for being my bestfriend.”

Codie: “Dad, you taught me to be strong and resilient, and to truly know what it feels like to be loved unconditionally. Love you, your P.B.G.”

Survivors include his daughter, Codie Farrar and husband, Bryan; sister, Cheryl Riley; grandchildren, Annabell Marie Simon and Adaline Skye Farrar; and nieces and nephews, Wes Riley, Ronda Upshaw, Tricia Mayuex, Mark Simon, Keith Simon, Erin Moreno, A.J. Simon, Matthew Simon, Melissa, Kim, and Tammy.

He is preceded in death by his parents; and brothers, Byron Simon and Timothy Simon.

His cremation arrangements will be handled through Broussard’s Crematorium, Beaumont, under the direction of Broussard’s, 134 West Buccaneer Drive, Winnie.
