My "step"father Richard was the greatest man I've ever known. He loved my mom and her 3 crazy kids as his own for years without anything in return until we were old enough to realize how lucky we were to have such a great man in our lives. He taught us to love Jesus, be decent people, work hard, and take care of each other. He had a band and also taught us so much about music. After 30 years of being married to my mom, he passed away in 2020. My siblings and our spouses wrote his eulogy and made sure this song, Simple Man, was the 1st heard by everyone in the church who attended. He was the greatest man. I am so fortunate to have had 30 years of his time on earth being my dad.

My son was 21 when he passed away. His two sisters picked their songs to be played and this was the song I chose to play at his funeral. It couldn't have been any more perfect. There were probably 250 people that attended and there wasn't a dry eye in the chapel on that day. Many thanks to Lynard Skynyrd for a song that has so much meaning to me. You Rock!! Your memories live on Brent Aaron Burgess!! One Love!

I'm so sorry I can't ever imagine losing a child I've lost my parents I have lost a brother and sister at very young ages and my husband a short three years ago but to lose a child I just can't imagine. I've always wondered if it was punishment from God until I was directed to James 1:13 which reads this way. When under trial let no one say I am being tried by God for with evil things God cannot be tried nor does he himself try anyone. That sure gets you to thinking why do we suffer. And then after I read this other scripture it really made me start doing some digging that's Revelation 12:12 on this account be glad you heavens and you who reside in them woe for the Earth and for the sea because the devil has come down to you having great anger knowing that he has a short period of time. Think about that for a moment. For more information go to jw.org

I speak life, blessings, restoration, complete healing over your spirit, your soul and your body in the name of Jesus and I speak salvation over you and your house, in the mighty name of Jesus Christ I declare and decreed this, amen. Pray this prayer all the time and it will go away, this is spiritual warfare, let the doctors do their job, you do yours and I can guarentee it, it will go away, ask the Lord about this, ask for wisdom and understanding on this. Ask the Lord for the root of the oroblem, how did this cancer gain entrance into yiur body? Ask, ask, ask, thre is a Living God and HE is good, if there was no God, then Good and evil would not exist.

One day as I was sitting outside smoking a cig he sat with me and we talked about life. This was his favorite song. He passed in a horrible accident as he was driving his semi in snowy weather up in the Texas panhandle. To this day, I play this song at least twice 8n his memory. Cheers brotha, this one's for you.

My other papaw quit smoking about 15 years ago, but he has bad COPD and got out of breath just from talking before being put on oxygen a couple months ago.

@@seanbishop9273 Even if it was not bad for your health, and it is extremely bad for your health, it smells really really bad. You as the smoker are the absolute last one to know how bad you smell. Even now, you're thinking, "I don't smell bad." Yep, you do. It's also a grand waste of money. Remember that longevity is one thing, but quality of life is quite another. Your voice changes and becomes way less clear. You get out of breath easily and did I mention: you smell really bad, as does all your clothing.

(Of course I worked hard until I figured out what I wanted to do but kept busy and living life.) I finally w ent to a trade school in 2003 and have been successful since.

Im sorry for your loss and everyone who has suffered first from a criminal conspiracy of pharmceutical and doctors to sale massive amounts of narcotics with no regard for the devastation inflcted as long as more zeroes were added to the bottom line and a hefty fine that wasnt but a small portion of the profits was the punishment actually it was just them paying the gov there take like a good partner in crime. iSadly our " leaders" have totally abandoned there responsibilities to this country and allowed a hundred thousand people die a year when the entire Vietnam War had less in its entirety. It's not just drugs being dangerous but the Chinese flooding the country with Fentanyl to make them even deadlier without a single repercussion and that's why they do it they know they can kill a million of our citizens this way with little no consequences whereas using a gun to kill even one could trigger a war.

Me and my brother knew this older man in Alabama that had a horse farm and we went to visit him. We called over about 10 of those horses and afterwards all three of us were sitting on this rock wall right outside the farm just watching the horses, it was probably 7 o'clock just as sun is going down, but this fourth guy just drove up because he knew the guy and we all were just sitting on that rock wall and Simple Man started playing and we just sat there and listened. That was a great moment in my life. Thanks Skynyrd

My mom passed away on January 11th, 2017. About a month later, I was building my first work bench (she was a really handy woman) and I broke down crying that I wished she could be there to see my creation and to tell me she was proud. I was listening to Pandora and had been listening to heavy rock all night, nothing soothing. After I broke down, cried and talked to mom, this song came next on the playlist. I immediately stopped what I was doing with the work bench and just cried and enjoyed the moment with my mom. I knew she was looking down from up above and couldn’t talk to me directly, so she had to show her grieving son that she was still with him in spirit. I get married in 2 days on 6-12-21 and this is the song I’m dancing too with my future mother-in-law. I love and miss you mom!!

I feel you I lost all my grandparents it’s life , but if this song brings them close to you LUSTEN TO THIS BEAUTIFUL SONG

[@jasonstrickland9245]

I'm sorry man, I lost my grandpa (01-17-22) and had his funeral today. My grandpa was this song in living fashion, but the lyrics of the song are what he would have told me to do and how to live my life. At first I didn't know why I chose to listen to this song but after seeing the series of comments like yours now I know.

[@Jingletown58]

I just found this song hearing it at the funeral yesterday, of my #SpiritSon #Oreo who is father to my grandson and as a Grandma I can truly say this song sings to everything we wish for our sons, grandsons, spirit sons and any child we love and wish the best life they can live to the fullest. My sincere condolences on your loss of your grandma 🌹🙏 if this was her favorite song there’s no doubt it was meant for you

[@larrybob3610]

One of the most beautiful songs to ever be produced

[@Carburetedofficial]

I sit here with tears running down my face, listening to this masterpiece of a song, because i know my mother wants me to be just the same as this, dont try to be the best at any of it, just be a man of honor, trust, integrity, and love. to those who came here also to share their sad story, i hope your troubles do pass, you deserve the best, whoever you are reading this, smile and be happy, or cry tears of joy, what ever it is you feel, spread it, as long as it is positive.

My dad used to listen to this song when I was a teenager, I never paid attention to the lyrics but it hits so different and hard when you're past 20

[@Jayking1117]

This is what real life is about

[@RMichaelHimself]

So much music I listened to as a kid hits different now - took til my 20s for sure. Largely because I had *SEVERE* ADHD as a child, and pretty much all songs were misunderstood. I was sort of in a permanent acid trip as a kid. I literally didn’t understand a single story line from any movie, even simple cartoons. It was all just colors, noises and the vivid over-perception of micro, imagined storylines. I’ve thoroughly enjoyed going back and re-watching/re-listening to all the movies and songs I watched during childhood. It’s an incredibly euphoric, borerline psychedelic experience, especially rewatching old disney movies. It’s hard to explain - it’s almost like remembering an old dream that’s been forgotten since your childhood. And all the memories and emotions you felt at that precise moment suddenly rush back. Like, the most beautiful imagery and smells, and vibes overtake me. It’s an incredible experience. No words can explain.

[@braidenjanvier1172]

I never truely understood the lyrics when I was about 11 I'm still young I'm only 15 but I'm a 15 year old that had to grow up fast or join the homeless in the street's.

Well, that's when we ALL WOULD BE MUCH HAPPIER. I'M so sorry that you are not happy .... Simply put...if YOU were HAPPY , YOU wouldn't be so ANGRY ABOUT THOSE WORDS IN THE SONG. I have VERY DIFFICULT DAYS, just like everyone does. And, I have to try to find a reason to even keep going some days. TODAY, YOUR COMMENT WAS THE REASON!! I said nothing about "GOD"... That was you and plz EVERYONE THAT READS THIS AND DOES KNOW AND BELIEVE IN GOD AND JESUS CHRIST, WOULD YOU ALL PRAY FOR THIS PERSONS SOUL BECAUSE What happens to our SOULS when we are called HOME IS REALLY WHAT MATTERS. FYI , MY SOUL IS WELL WITH MY SON SITTING OR STANDING IN FRONT OF GOD'S THRONE.... I JUST MISS HIS HUGS AND THE VERY BRIGHT LIGHT THAT BEAMED FROM HIM .... IN A SHORT TIME HE TOUCHED SOOO MANY OTHER SOULS AND HE LEFT THIS PLACE WITH A LEGACY. I want that for you as well. I apologize for upsetting you and NOTHING ELSE. I WILL NEVER EVER EVER DENY GOD OR JESUS CHRIST, OUR SAVIOR! You ARE GOD"S CHILD AND THE SOONER OUR PRAYERS ARE ANSWERED FOR YOU THE BETTER OFF YOUR SOUL WILL BE WHEN YOUR TIME COMES.
