Simon Todres

Simon Todres, 86, longtime resident of Colonial Terrace, Ocean, NJ and World War II veteran, passed away Sunday after a short illness.

He is also survived by sisters and brothers-in-law Miriam and Myles Turtz, Cherry Hill and Jacqueline and Fred Grayer, Moorestown, as well as many nieces, nephews, grand-nieces and grand-nephews. No one could tell the same stories better and as frequently as Sid. Sid loved spending time with family, gardening, fishing and working with his customers. His company had been after him to retire for years, but Sid wouldn’t hear of it. He worked until his death.
