Our class is grateful to Sid for the three five-year terms he served as class secretary and his contributions as a member of the executive committee. He attended all but one of our 26 off-campus mini-reunions. It was at a mini he first met Jean, whom he married in 1997.
Coming to Princeton from St. Paul’s School, he majored in geological engineering and belonged to Key and Seal. After attending graduate school at Stanford, he pursued his lifetime career as a hydrogeologist. He retired in 1996.
During his career he lived in New York City and Connecticut, convenient distances from the Fox family camp on Little Big Wood Pond in Jackman, Maine, where he spent nearly every summer of his life.
Following retirement, Sid moved to Campo, in high desert country about 50 miles east of San Diego, where Jean lived. He continued his lifetime of community involvement in Campo, where his activities included Kiwanis and volunteering at the library and historical society. Over the years he became a serious Civil War historian and amassed an extensive Civil War book collection.
Sid is survived by Jean, children George and Lydia ’81, and five grandchildren.
