H English 10 | 6th Period

Simon was genuinely better than most of the boys. He wasn't a boss, but an actual leader. He looked out for everyone, even the Littluns. Everyone kinda regrets looking up too Ralph after Simon's tragic death. Simon. Had his hands out for the more vulnerable boys. Without Simon the boys go insane, as Ralph wants to attack Jack's tribe. 

So I think it had a big impact on the story, considering Simon was for all.
