Lance Cpl. Abraham Simpson was an Eagle Scout from Chino Troop 202. He was killed Nov. 9, 2004, during the battle of Fallujah in Iraq at the age of 19.

Abe graduated from Southlands Christian School in Walnut, CA, and was an Infantryman for the United States Marine Corp for 15 months. He was a member of Calvary Chapel in Chino Hills and had many hobbies including backpacking, church mission trips, Scouting, and basketball. He was a spiritual person and on the last phone call to his mother, he told her that he was going into Fallujah, and he had hoped that if anyone had to die, he wanted it to be him, because he was ready and they weren't. "I Can Only Imagine" was a favorite song of his.

The Abraham Simpson Eagle Scout Scholarship Foundation honors Lance Cpl. Simpson. Troop 202 Eagle Scouts may apply for a college scholarship in their senior year of high school (see application below, updated January 2015).
