Auntie Margaret and Uncle Sid were a couple who demonstrated a deep love and affection for each other, I always think of them as a couple, as they were never very far from each other. Sadly Uncle Sid passed in October last year, 64 years since their wedding in 1956. I was their bridesmaid in a long green “rustling” dress, made for me by Auntie Margaret’s Mum. Auntie Margaret had been working at Curtis’s in Silver Street, Lincoln selling cooked and uncooked meats. In those days her parents lived in Gaunt Street with their dog, where I visited for the dress fitting.

Initially Uncle Sid and Auntie Margaret went to live in a converted Nissen Hut at Rand, not far from Uncle George and Auntie Vera, who had been married for just four weeks. I was staying with Auntie Vera and Uncle George at Fulnetby, and I remember walking with Auntie Vera to visit Auntie Margaret, while the men were at work; she made us so welcome. Both couples would later move to Tennyson House in Dunholme and it was about this time that I was given an autograph book, in which Auntie Margaret wrote, “If you have a mother, treasure her with care, for you’ll never know her value until you see the vacant chair.” A poem that is now so poignant. Uncle Sid and Auntie Margaret would ultimately moved to Allwood Road.

I remember when I was talking with Auntie Margaret after Uncle Sid’s quadruple heart bypass, she said, “I think it did more at him watching me water his garden than anything else.”

They have always held a very special place in my heart, I will miss them, as will all our family.

With our love, thoughts and prayers for all the family at this time.
