Sylvester Shikany Siddens was born October 7, 2023 to his parents, Talon Siddens and Kathleen Shikany, who were so excited to welcome "Sly" to their family. For five weeks he grew, thrived, and brought so much joy to his family and friends. All were looking so forward to nurturing and watching him grow up. On November 11 at only 5 weeks of age, he died suddenly of SIDS in Springfield, Missouri.
Sylvester is survived by and was the loved son of Talon Siddens and Kathleen Shikany.
He is also survived by his sisters, Kimbrough Shikany and Melanie Ritzo, and brother, Owen Siddens, along with grandparents, great grandparents, uncles, aunts, cousins and many friends.
The joy Sylvester brought to his family in his short time here is indescribable.
