I worked with Sid at Texas Instruments and he provided me with assistance, laughs and friendship. I have nothing but sadness to see a work partner finish his work on this earth.

Long time back door neighbor, friend and hunting/fishing buddy: great memories of our friendship and 'adventures'. To Davie and the boys: Sue and I pray the Lord will comfort you and give you peace during this difficult time.

Sid and I first became acquainted while I was doing a construction project for Solectron.  We soon became friends and my son Christopher and I spent several years hunting and fishing with Sid and his sons.  Sid was a class guy who loved the outdoors and loved his family.

May God give all of you peace and comfort during these difficult times.

I went to TJ with Sid and lived only a few blocks from him in the 1950s. My family and I left Dallas in 1962, but  I had the wonderful pleasure of reconnecting with him in 2011 at the TJ Class of 1961  Fiftieth Reunion and together with him visiting his father and mother at their home in Dallas.  His father and mine were best of friends during our family years in Dallas in the 1950s. My heartfelt condolences to Myriam and "Jacky" (as I knew you).  May he rest in peace.

Sid was a great athlete and all around good guy. I too lost touch with him over the years but he'll continue to be at our reunions in spirit. 
Condolences to his family ...

I am SO sorry to learn of Sid's death. I am praying for all of you.

Sid was an old friend and classmate from our time together at Dallas TJ. He was a gifted multi-sport athlete and popular with his classmates. After losing touch with him, I had the fairly recent pleasure of having an Austin mini-reunion lunch with Sid and a few other former classmates. As always, he was happy and full of stories, past and present. It's a great way to remember him. 

My condolences to his family and his many other friends and neighbors who will surely miss him.
