Sidney Gordon Fredericksen March 17, 1943 – July 28, 2020

My dear Sidney passed away nearly a month ago already. I loved him so much, from the moment I first saw him.

Not that our relationship has been smooth–no, it’s been rocky. I could never have married a boring person, nice though he may be. Sid was the complete opposite of boring! Never a dull moment. Peaceful moments, yes, many. Our favourite times were mornings to ourselves in our quiet living room, with God and our little dog, Bear. We read our Bibles, often aloud to each other, discussed scripture and whatever else was on our minds. Sid played his guitar or ukulele and sang hymns and choruses. He didn’t mind my joining in although I was usually off key. He just made me feel good if I actually got it right. We praised God together, prayed for each other and others as God laid on our hearts.

I miss him so much. It’s still hard for me to come to his page on my website and write about him because his passing is still so recent. I will add more to his story in the future.
