I'm very late doing this. Sidney was a neighbourhood friend to me and my husband from the time she moved to Belsize, probably 25 years ago. Jim and she met dog walking, and we retained a casual, dog-walking, occasional dinner relationship for many years. After Jim died in 2018, Sidney and I spent much more time together. We'd have dinner at least once a month, even after we each moved to apartments. I'll miss her honesty, love of life, and adoration of all things, alive -- her garden plants, her dogs, her cats. All good friends to a good human being.
