My sincere condolences on Sid´s passing. Sid will be greatly missed. We were classmates and friends at Norwich. Jewish students comprised a small group, so we got to know each other fairly well. It was always a pleasure to see Sid at our reunions.
May Sid´s memory be as a blessing for all who knew him.
