He was an accomplished engineer, who held several patents in the areas of polymers and composites. In his free time, Mr. Sidi was an avid reader and enjoyed golfing.

Mr. Sidi leaves behind his son, Nadir Sidi; daughter, Taslim Urnek; five siblings, Ibrahim Sidi, Shamim Sidi, Rosemin Sidi, Saira Hemani, and Zenobia Sidi; three nephews and his grandson.
