To the Simon Family,
Twenty years have gone by but often, and always during election seasons, I find myself referencing Arynne's skills, process and Simonizing success. She made a mark, certainly for me and many others I witnessed attempting to make the critical point in the crucial moment. Arynne was about courage and clarity. God can expect to be seeing a lot of red underscores!!

To the Simon family - Arynne was a talented and caring individual for many of us in Silicon Valley. She took her work seriously but was funny and charming, while she made each of us better. I am proud to have known . May she rest in peace knowing she made everyone she interacted with a better person

To Bill and Family - my deepest condolences on Arynne's passing. I will always remember her boundless generosity, support and joie de vivre - I loved spending time with her in Silicon Valley, London and La Jolla - she gave me so much. May her memory be a blessing to you always.

Dearest Simon Family, I'm heartbroken to hear about Arynne's passing. Please accept my deepest sympathies. I will always hold her close to my heart. She was an incredible mentor and friend to so many of us. Her talents were endless and we were so blessed that she shared them with us. Most of all that she shared her love and friendship. I will always love her dearly and treasure our times together. She was so proud of all of you and loved her family so very much.

Arynne was most certainly an amazing woman and a strong mentor in my life - she was always part of my Apple teams. She made us all laugh, try again and ultimately be our best. She mades teams out the mismatched groups we had. I treasures the shirt that said "I have been simonized"...kathi fox

Arynne made a difference in my life. I met her when she taught a class in Assertiveness Training at San Dieguito Adult School in the '70's. The lessons have never left me. She helped me get my first 'important' job and I was proud to work for her in later years. I send my thanks for her wisdom and lessons.
