Simone Theodore, a beloved resident of Takoma Park, MD, peacefully passed away on October 8, 2024, following a brave battle with liver cancer. Born on November 11, 1994, Simone’s 29 years were marked by incredible strength, creativity, and a deep faith in God’s plan for her life.
Simone was known for her passion for storytelling, which she pursued through her studies in broadcast journalism at Oakwood University in Alabama. Her creative spirit shone in her photography, where she captured moments at events such as New York Fashion Week, and in her work as a production assistant in the film industry. Her talents extended to writing as well, with her blog, "Simon Said," where she shared her reflections on life, faith, and personal growth.
Her life touched many, and her passing has left a profound impact on those who knew her. Friends and family remember her thoughtfulness, her ability to make everyone feel special, and her wisdom beyond her years. Simone’s sister, Somara Theodore, organized a GoFundMe fundraiser to honor Simone’s wish for a celebration of life filled with light and love, just as she requested in her final days.
Many have shared heartfelt messages in remembrance of Simone. Sarina Campbell wrote, “Simone. You could never be replaced. You are forever etched in my memory. To be half as loving as you would be enough to make Antoine feel seen. You were and are the best of us, my lovely little sis. May your legacy live on in his we choose to intentionally love and live. I’m so grateful though my heart is broken. Rest.”
The fundraiser will help fulfill Simone’s vision for her farewell, which includes an open, light-filled space and a gathering to reflect the beauty she brought into the world. Contributions will go towards the venue, celebration of life service, burial, and other costs. Carmen Currie made a generous donation of $200, showing the community’s strong support during this difficult time.
Our thoughts and prayers are with the Theodore family as they navigate this heartbreaking loss. May Simone’s legacy of love, kindness, and creativity continue to inspire all who knew her.
