Sidney Ozer

A visit to San Antonio was a blessing when his aunt Ella Weiner arranged a blind date with Winnie Heubaum.

His move to Texas followed in 1941. They married on June 4, 1941 and spent 57 beautiful years together.

Sid was twice a recipient of the Jewish Federation's President's Award, and was active over the years in multiple organizations in both the Jewish and general community, including Golden Manor where he was a member of the Founding Board in 1968, Temple Beth-El, Foster Grandparents, and the Brandeis Book Fair.

He has served on the national Board of Myriam's Dream an organization involved in helping the aged and handicapped in Israel and around the world.

Additionally, he was a tireless and dedicated fundraiser for decades. He was a member of the Blue Bird Auxiliary at Methodist Hospital for over 15 years.
