Always admired you as a General Manager of Yarra Valley Water. You were charismatic, strong, visionary and approachable and you knew the business well. Will never forget the generous spread of free food that
you organised for Chinese employees each Chinese New Year. So very thoughtful. Also remembered the time when we mentored some school kids and you always made sure that we were well fed after each weekly meeting. How did you find the time?

You were a generous and sincere person and it's tragic that your time on Earth could not have been longer. RIP.

Dear Melanie & family, Our deepest condolences. I will always cherish the fond memories, especially in the early years when I first arrived in Australia. Simon's advice and guidance to 'newbie' students then are never forgotten. Rest in Peace, Simon.

Rest In Peace
Seng Piok
It is my pleasure to have grown up with you during my secondary days in school. Part of my after school hours were spent in your house. We had Malay tuition together. Sadly we could not be together for maths tuition.

My condolences to your family

Farewell my dearest Simon.
It had been a good one year to have kept in touch with you esp last Christmas when you load me with photos of your family. Life never dies, it would be befitting that you are now in Heaven with Christ, your Savior and Lord.

Dear Melanie and Children,

We were deeply saddened to hear about the passing of Simon. Please accept our heartfelt condolences during this difficult time.
We will always remember Simon fondly, both as a person and as my manager. He had a positive influence on my career and growth. I still tell people that who I have become is because of Simon. We shared several happy moments with Simon—apart from work, we had lunches, dinners, attended concerts, and enjoyed various events together.

You are in our thoughts and prayers. May you find comfort and strength in the love and support of those around you.
With deepest sympathy,
Senthu Jegadheesan
