I recently received Ward genealogy records from Simon and was so sad to now read that he has passed away. I did not know you all personally but Simon's phone call to me was special and I am sending you my heartfelt sympathy. Thank you Simon for sharing your records with me I will treasure them forever.

Much saddened to hear of Simon's untimely death through a mutual College House friend, Mike Murtagh.
Simon's contribution to University life in his earlier years was impressive, but this community mindedness continued throughout his whole adult life.
Deepest sympathy to Lynley and family.

I am very sorry to hear of your loss. It sounds as though you are all having a bit of a gag about the date he chose to depart. At least he does not have to endure anymore. Thinking of you all at this sad time.
