Sid was a great colleague to have on our Ed Tech team. He was kind, patient and a wonderful teacher. Always ready to help out. I'm glad to have known him.

What a great loss to all who knew him. Sid was a treasure. He always had a good word to say and even a joke sometimes. He loved his family so much and so many of us at Mkor Hayim knew how personable and respectful he was. He will be sorely missed...

I am so sorry to hear of Sid's passing. I had the pleasure of meeting Sid and Marilyn at our shared apartment complex in Overland Park. For the last year plus I took Sid to our Friday meetings of ROMEO (Retired Old Men Eating Out) up until just a few weeks ago. Even though Sid was having health problems, he always had a good disposition and enjoyed visiting with other members. I will miss him. Marilyn you have my wife's and my deepest sympathy. If there is anything we can do to help you, please let us know.

Good, good memories from Whitmore Elementary... working with Sid on setting up the first computer lab and as a parent with Sid teaching my son 5th grade.
May the Love Sid shared stay close to You and your family, Marylín.
