Overview
Edward Simpson (1995-2017) started his Surveying degree at the University of Otago in 2014. He was posthumously awarded the degree of BSc (Surveying Measurement) on the 12 May 2018.
Eddie was a loyal friend and truly unique individual. Those who knew him will especially remember his large smile and clever wit. Among his many interests, reading and listening to music ranked highly, as well as adventures in the great outdoors and a love of skiing.
We hope the Totara tree provides a place for family and friends to remember Eddie.
