After Simon and his family gave me a fantastic home for six months, when I was spending half an year in New Zealand. I can imagine what a terrible loss this awful accident means to the whole family, Simon was very much like a perfect father to me and I am so sorry.
In loving memory,
Tim Wrede

We were so sad to hear the news of Simon passing, we always enjoyed a catch up with Simon who always had time to talk with us. I have fond memories of staying at the Meade family home while racing at the Cemetery circuit on boxing day. Condolences to the family from us.
