Sid Davis was one of the kindest and dearest people in my life. He will be sadly missed.
He lived is whole life in Jefferson County NY, and was a graduate of Henderson Central School. He married Sylvia “Spook” Richmond July 5, 1959 at the Belleville Methodist Church parsonage and together they raised a son and a daughter. Spook died in 2003. Sid was someone you could count on. He put others before himself and was a wonderful friend to all. He was a volunteer with the Henderson Ambulance squad and also helped raise foster children for many years. He retired in 2014 from the NY State Park Department, mainly working at Sacket's Harbor.
Sid found love again after his first wife's death with a wonderful woman with whom he shared the last decade of his life. They were beautifully suited to each other and both became very dear friends to me. Sid was one of a kind. He was always giving his time and help to others, but was so reluctant to ever ask for help himself. His last year was bitter sweet as he fought and won a battle against cancer, only to have a second unrelated cancer appear. He fought that as well and it was successfully removed and he was on the road to recovery, but his giant heart finally gave out just as Spring arrived in the north country.
Always practical, Sid had arranged everything in advance and he will be buried next to his older brother Paul in Black River Cemetery. It's a beautiful peaceful spot.
I miss you Sid!
