Ronald Allen Sidelle, 83, of Brooklyn, NY. Wonderful husband, father, grandfather, brother and uncle; devoted and loyal friend. Ron was born in Brooklyn in 1933 to Abraham and Sally Sidelle. He lived in New York his whole life, aside from his time at Indiana University (1949-53) and in the Army JAG, stationed at the Pentagon(1957-59). He was an attorney-at-law, graduating from Columbia Law School in 1956. After his father’s untimely death in 1959, he took over his father’s position at Erstein and Sidelle and stayed there until his retirement in 2013. His richest pleasure was time with his family and friends, many of whom he had for over 50 years. He and his wife, Dorothy, met in Florida during winter break in 1955, and celebrated their 60th anniversary this October. They traveled extensively together throughout the U.S. and abroad. Known for his honesty and integrity, open heart, generosity and enthusiasm, he will be deeply missed by family and friends.
