Tori Christian Geraci Simons, 36, of Winnsboro, Texas, passed away peacefully in her home, surrounded by loved ones, on July 18, 2025.
Tori was born on November 14, 1988, in Winnsboro, Texas, where she also grew up and built a beautiful life filled with love, laughter, and unwavering faith.
Tori had a gift for making others feel seen and beautiful—most notably through her work as a hair stylist, but also simply through the way she loved people. Her smile could light up a room, her laughter was contagious, and her presence brought joy to everyone around her.
A woman of many talents and accomplishments, Tori had a passion for dancing and was a gifted public speaker who once had the honor of speaking to Zig Ziglar himself, along with his leadership team—an opportunity she cherished. She was crowned Queen Autumn Trails 47, was a Junior Dallas Cowboy Cheerleader, and earned a cheerleading scholarship to Dallas Baptist University. But her greatest titles—and the ones she held most dear—were Wife, Mom, Daughter, Sister, and Friend.
Tori lived her life full of joy, kindness, and a deep love for Jesus. She and her family attended Pine Street Baptist Church. She was a devout Christian who extended grace, forgiveness, and love. She believed in seeing the best in people and always made others feel wanted, important, and deeply valued.
Tori was preceded in death by her grandfathers, Roger Beaty and Anthony Geraci. She is survived by her parents, Kim and Tony Geraci; her loving husband, Chett Simons; her children, Journi, Hendrix, and Rocker; her sister, Kasi, and husband Noah Tramel; her treasured nieces and nephew, Tilden, Scottie, Jaxon, and Addley; and countless family members and friends who adored her.
Her favorite sayings were “I love you most,” and “I love your guts.” But to her children, she
gave a message that will echo in their hearts forever: “I love you to infinity and beyond.” It was
her way of reminding them that her love is endless, unshakable, and always with them.
