The Passing of a Dear Friend and Gentleman - Sid Parker

Hi all,
Today I attended the funeral of Sid Parker, a friend of myself, Paul and Tim and a late member of Mid Sussex Flyers. The funeral was held at Worth crematorium near Crawley and the chapel was so crowded it was amazing to see.
Sid had tributes from his daughter, his music friends and of course his flying friends from MSF.

Sid was a brilliant jazz pianist, a piano tuner, an aircraft engineer at BA, a great RC model builder and flier and above all an all-round good egg.

Sid was a gentleman in every respect of the word, he was always willing to help anyone and often repaired other people's models for them after a crash.

Sid, you will be sadly missed by all your friends.

Good bye my old friend.

Rob
