Revisions
I am Sidney's daughter. I am updating his profile. Sidney passed away peacefully on January 12, 2014 at his home in Ormond Beach Florida. Sidney never stopped talking about his war experience, being shot down over France, staying with the French underground and crossing the English Channel to safety.
