Walter Simpson Jr. Obituary, Hesston Pennsylvania Death: 62-Year-Old Dies in Construction-Zone Crash

Walter Simpson Jr., 62, of Hesston, Pennsylvania, died on September 28, 2026, following a crash in an active construction zone along Interstate 70 in Fulton County, Pennsylvania. His passing has brought sadness to his family, friends, coworkers, and community.


According to reports, the collision occurred around 6:50 a.m. near mile marker 159 in Brush Creek Township, southeast of Breezewood. Simpson was operating a construction sweeper in the work zone when it collided with a 2018 Chrysler Pacifica. Emergency responders transported him to Fulton County Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead at approximately 9:14 a.m.

Pennsylvania State Police are investigating the circumstances surrounding the crash. The other driver, a 47-year-old woman from West Virginia, was reportedly being investigated for suspected driving under the influence. The investigation remains ongoing, and the preliminary findings do not establish a final determination of responsibility.

Simpson's death highlights the risks faced by road construction workers who perform their duties near moving traffic. His family, friends, and coworkers are left to mourn his passing and remember the time they shared with him.

A separate obituary listing for Walter W. Simpson Jr. of Penn, Pennsylvania, gives family details and memorial arrangements, but it does not establish whether he is the same person involved in the crash. Those details have therefore been left out of this tribute.
