Hello, 46-year-old Lyndell Simmons should be so ashamed of himself. We should also have more respect for our parents alive or deceased. In addition, 46 years old is a long time to be alive, find a job, pay bills and take care of yourself and not feeding off of your own parents remains. Treating your mother that way even after her death is so disrespectful to mankind. Hopefully, the level of punishment he has received helps him think about his mother and spend time blessing her name AND; asking our almighty for forgiveness.

I would be willing to bet that he is not the only one doing this kind of theft from the government. Probably other veterans who are no longer living are still getting checks from the VA and they are being cashed!! THIS definitely needs to be widely investigated

Here we go yetone more time. A crook abuse's the system and its harder for the people who need the benifits to get them.
So hang them everytime you catch them. We are looking at a
major savings on the waste problem.

Because people have no guilt any more, he is heartless that's why, only thinking of him self. This is what the world has gone to now, "It's all about me" epidemic. Heck there is a line of clothes out there now the encourages it. Has "It's all about me all over them"
