======================================================== 
Sid stayed in his home area and, according to his obituary,  was a retired 
farmer.  He also had worked for a number of years soliciting subscriptions 
for the Macon Telegraph throughout South Georgia..  He died suddenly in Fort 
Valley, age 55.  His grand-daughter is of the opinion that farming was not 
his main occupation.
