FOLSTER February 14, 1925 - January 7, 2014 On Tuesday, January 7, 2014 at the Deer Lodge Centre, Sid joined his beloved wife Myrtle at the age of 88 years. Sid was predeceased by his parents David and Dinah, his brother Bud, sisters Lillian and Pearl. He will be lovingly remembered by his children: Wayne, Bev (Bill), Donna (Ken), Janice (Gerry), grandchildren: David (Candace), Graham (Kati), Teri (Derek), Bryce (Erin), Kelly (Elliot), Katelyn, Chapin, and great-grandchildren: Ben, Abby, Roey, Ellie, Cara, and Scarlett. Sid served overseas in the Navy from 1943 to 1945 and was a member of the Royal Canadian Legion. He was married to the love of his life, Myrtle, for 62 years and the two of them enjoyed many summers at West Hawk Lake blueberry picking and playing crib with cocktails in hand. He was employed for 39 years with Winnipeg Hydro as an electrician and Safety First was his motto. Sid enjoyed his time with his family, he was proud of them all, and he maintained a good sense of humour right to the end.

From the first time we met Sid and Myrtle, we knew that they were meant to be together forever. Sid, if we didn't put our trailer in that way, we might never have gotten to appreciate the small things in life that make us unique, Sid, you taught us that! We are sure it's happy hour where they are now and that they are enjoying the endless blueberry patches and having lots of laughs. We will always have fond memories of our times with them and their wonderful families at the lake. - Posted by: Brian & Debbie, Shelby & Stephanie Barron (Lake Friends) on: Jan 11, 2014
