Jerome Simon
April 20, 1969 – June 13, 2025
Jerome Alan Simon, 56, of Sweet Home, passed away June 13, 2025.
He was born April 20, 1969, to Arlie Patricia Richards and George Simon in Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario.
Jerome married Rona in Las Vegas in 1998, and they moved in 1999 to her home in Sweet Home.
After graduating from Sir James Dunn high school, Jerome enrolled in Sault College’s Computer Engineering program, where his expertise in computer programming helped him to secure a job working for Lowe’s Distribution Human Resource Center as a computer technician.
Jerome loved his job and was a multi-tasker as he not only worked at the computer in the H.R. office, but he also worked as a forklift operator on the warehouse floor, loading appliances when he was needed. He was awarded Employee of the Month multiple times for his dedication and work performance.
Jerome is survived by his parents, Arlie P. Richards and George Simon; stepchildren Josh Borlaugh and Kylah Borlaugh; brother Michael (Terry), sister Karen Triplett (Alan); and many aunts, uncles, nieces and nephews.
Sweet Home Funeral Chapel is handling the arrangements.
