“Before I formed you in the womb I knew you.”

— Jeremiah 1:5

It is with profound sorrow and heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our precious son, Tacorian Rashun Simmons, Jr., lovingly known as TJ. Born asleep on June 10, 2026, in Dallas, Texas, TJ was immediately surrounded by the endless love of his family.

Though his time with us was brief, his life was deeply cherished and forever changed the hearts of those who loved him. He is lovingly remembered by his devoted father, TaCorian Simmons Sr.; his caring mother, Ariel Gill Simmons; his siblings, Aiden, Elijah, and Arianna; his grandparents, Kristy McKenzie, Rashun Simmons (Lakisha), and Sandra Gill Powell (Leterrick); and many other beloved relatives and friends who will carry his memory in their hearts always.

Though we never heard his cries, TJ was deeply loved before he ever entered this world and will forever remain a cherished part of our family. His tiny footprints have left an everlasting mark on our hearts, and his memory will be treasured forever.

A solemn burial service to celebrate and honor TJ’s precious life will be held on Monday, June 15, 2026, beginning at 1:00 p.m. at Little Bethel Memorial Park,1803 Cedar Hill Rd., Duncanville, TX 75137.

Forever loved. Forever cherished. Forever our son.
