I am sorry that I am unable to attend Simon's funeral and memorial ceremony. I have known Simon for many years, but never knew him very well. I found him to be a kind, attentive, thoughtful and gentle man. He impressed me with his strong commitment to the things he believed in, his passion for the work he did,and his integrity. It is a very sad loss, and I will miss him. With love and many thoughts to his family. Lisa Heller
