In Loving Memory of Drew Simmie
May 28, 1939 - September 10, 2024
Drew Simmie, a thought leader and seeker of life's deeper meaning, has completed his earthly journey.
As a coach, mentor, and inspiring writer, Drew left an indelible mark on all who encountered his work. His reflections were more than words, they were roadmaps for navigating life's twists and turns, always urging his readers to "stay interesting, stay interested, stay relevant."
For Drew, life was not about avoiding the storms, but about learning to "dance in the rain," an ethos he embodied in every facet of his work. He believed in the power of choice, urging others to weigh decisions carefully, but also to boldly pursue the life that calls to them. To him, each challenge was a stepping stone to greater self-awareness and fulfillment. He reminded us that while we can't control the winds of change, we can always adjust our sails.
A believer in the idea that "life must be lived forward," Drew encouraged others to embrace the journey, however uncertain it might be. In his words, "We pass through many lives, on our way to becoming whom we were meant to be."
Drew Simmie leaves behind a legacy not just of ideas, but of a life fully lived and shared. As his readers, friends, and family reflect on his life, let us remember his mantra: "Take the next first step." His spirit will continue to inspire, guiding us through our own paths, one decision at a time.
Rest in peace, Drew. Your words live on.
