Sid was a wonderful man who always had a funny story to tell. He loved children and would talk and play with them. Sid was generous and kind and the world will be a sadder one without him. My condolences to the Seghers family and our thoughts are with you.

My thoughts and prayers go out to the Seghers family that they may be comforted by their faith.
I only met Sidney a couple of times at family reunions, but he made me feel like we knew each other our whole lives.
Jenny and Nick, he will live on in y'all and your children to carry on his legacy.
Love and prayers.
