Sid always had a smile and a joke for me and for my family. His friendship with my parents lasted a lifetime, and they will cherish that always. Sid touched many lives, and we're honored that we were among them. Please accept our deepest and most sincere sympathies on your loss.

I wish that I can be with you (Aunt Goldie & family) in person. However, please know that I have the best memories of Uncle Sid as I was growing up. Our family holiday get togethers or just Sunday visits will forever be with me. He was a special uncle. My heart and tears are with you now... I know that he is with mom and Uncle Hank forever - B'Shalom -Cindy-
