Clarence Andrae Simpson

Clarence Andrae Simpson was a 20-year-old young man from the Santa Clarita area whose life mattered to family, friends and the broader community. Public reporting identifies him as a resident of Santa Clarita and records list his age as 20 at the time of his death in June 2024. While the public record about Clarence’s everyday life is limited, those who gathered to honor him described a life taken far too soon.

Clarence appears in community and remembrance listings for June 2, 2024, and local reporting shows neighbors and community members came together after his death to hold a vigil in his memory. The outpouring at that vigil reflected the care people felt for him, even where details remain private: the candles, names called aloud, and shared memories were gestures meant to hold his family and friends in a difficult time.

Available public notices emphasize Clarence’s youth and the shock felt by those who knew him. Listings that memorialize victims of gun violence include his name and date of death, and local news reporting has documented law-enforcement appeals for information and community efforts to remember him. These sources show a young life that mattered to others and a community that sought to honor him.

Because there is no published, family-authorized obituary located in established funeral-home or newspaper records that matches the full name and the exact date of death, this remembrance intentionally focuses on the person hinted at in the public record rather than on details that are not confirmed. Clarence’s life—his relationships, presence in Santa Clarita, and the grief of those who knew him—remain the most important aspects to hold in memory. He is remembered here as a real person who touched others and whose loss was deeply felt.
