Phyllis and family, my sincerest sympathy for your loss. I worked for Sidney in 1976 - 1977 -1978 at 33 North LaSalle #2200, before he left loop offices. What a pleasure it was to know and work along with such a fine human being. How blessed I was to know him. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

When I think of my Zadie, I remember his warm smile, great hugs, and Naomi's tap dances with his cane. I will always remember his sense of humor and love of ice cream. I am so sorry.

Mrs. Shalowitz, Deborah, Bruce,
It was almost a year ago at Thanksgiving when we saw you and Sidney - loving, engaged, enjoying life. Those are the very qualities I remember over my lifetime of knowing your family. May you find comfort in your memories of him and with the other mourners of Zion.
