Uncle Sidney, it’s been tough to find the words. It’s been a little over a month and it still just doesn’t seem real. Never would I have imagined that you would be taken from us so soon. You have been a consistent patriarch in my life.. patient, supportive, and encouraging. You always showed up for me and ensured your presence was felt. I am truly going to miss you. You were so proud of my accomplishments and happy to see me achieve life milestones. As my family has grown, you were right there along the way to let us know that we are loved and supported. You and Annie were the first ones to visit us at home after we had Avery and since then you have consistently been a presence in her life, regardless of how shy she has been towards you. We promise that she will know how loved she was by you. We promise to share stories with her and keep your memory alive in our hearts. We love you always Uncle Sidney and promise to continue be there for Auntie Lydia, Sidney, Lionel, Annie, and Raven.
Love,
Demetria, Maurice, and Avery ❤️
