JUST LEARNED OF THE SAD LOSS OF DR MURRAY SIMON AND PLEASE ACCEPT OUR CONDOLENCES. MURRAY AND I WERE U-PA DENTAL SCHOOL CLASSMATES, AND WE INTRODUCED HIM TO LINDA. MURRAY WAS A GOOD FRIEND AND AN INTELLIGENT, LIKEABLE INDIVIDUAL WHO ALWAYS HAD SOMETHINGGOOD TO SAY. EVEN THOUGH THE DENTAL CLASS DISPERSED AND WENT THEIR OWN WAYS, WE ALWAYS REMEMBERED MURRAY. DID NOT KNOW HE COLLECTED MINERALS AND GEMS, WHICH I DO, TOO.

Murray was a true leader in the Charlotte Gem and Mineral club and will be missed. I had the good fortune to share many meals together and always enjoyed his humor and stories about his love for magic as well as our bond with God's special rocks.

I am saddened to read of the passing of Murray Simon, whom I knew well through work with the Charlotte Gem and Mineral Club and many personal meets and conversations. He was an asset to all of his endeavors and a friend to his many associates. My sympathies to Linda, and the family, and the Club.
