It is sad, Bill. Simon was a good man and was very kind to beginning researchers, like myself. Again, I have no idea whether the charges against him were true, but a friend (who knew and strongly supported Simon) told me he thought it was more a misunderstanding than an outright case of harassment. Some also felt Williams showed poor taste mentioning it in his eulogy for Simon.
