To those that know them Passenger Simon Wall passed away on Saturday.

I am so sad to hear this. I was on crossings with Simon many times and I was always happy to find he was aboard. I remember his speech in the Queen's Grill on the last night before NY on the final Westbound crossing and it put a lump in the throat of everyone in the room. RIP, Simon, we miss you.

Thanks Dan for you post remembering Simon Wall.  It would be good if you could share more of your memories of him.  I have heard his name mentioned a few times on the forum, so it would be good to learn more.

Gosh l had no idea he was onboard for the Final Westbound , Im guessing he would have done the return crossing.
If only we had roped him into the Cabin Cavalcade  :)

From the moment you first glimpsed the Queen,
 you just knew you were in for a very special time ahead.!
