We will all miss you Simon.

Simon acted in my son's independent film in the Summer of 2008. He was a generous man with his talent, his knowledge, and his professionalism. We were blessed to have him on-set. Our prayers are with his family.

I had the opportunity to act with Simon onstage with "Laughter on the 23rd Floor." He always had sound advice for acting. A wonderful guy to know offstage and will be missed. May God watch over him and his family.

I met Simon and appeared with him in an independent film 'The Green Room'. He was also in a stage production of 'Laughter on the 23rd Floor' that I was able to attend. RIP Simon.

He will be missed by many. All our best to his family, especially to you Bobbi. We remember him fondly from his days at DDB and Universal. He was always fair and kind, and the world will be a little less creative without his presence.
All our Best,
