It's surreal to think I can never call Simon again to talk about his drone ideas or to meet up for dinner and share stories about our recent weeks events. I'm still in disbelief that he's really gone. Simon was always a caring friend who would go out of his way to make others feel valued and important. I miss you my friend.
