****UPDATE****

There will be a come and go celebration of life for Sid Waters on May 18, 2024 from 2:00 to 5:00 at the Pioneer Hall, 792 – 101 St, North Battleford.

Sid Waters from Battleford passed away on September 8, 2023 at the age of 93.

Allan Sidney Waters was born in North Battleford on December 26, 1929 to Allan & Mary Waters.
He grew up on the family farm east of Prongua. In his younger years he played hockey and baseball.
Sid worked at a few different jobs but most of his working years were at the Saskatchewan Hospital in nursing, maintenance and the canteen at the Irrigation, now Battlefords District Care Centre. He also farmed during this time.

Sid had four children, whom he shared with his former wife Viola “Toots” Waters, daughters Wendy, Pat, Ellen and son Donald.
Sid loved travelling, camping and fishing. After retiring he spent many winters in Arizona and surrounding states.

He always had a drink ready for visitors, sometimes coffee but more often something stronger!
You never had to worry what Sid was thinking, he always spoke his mind.

Sid is survived by his children

Pat Waters and her son Craig Chiga, Battleford;

Don Waters, Battleford and his children: Dustin (Stephanie), their daughter Olivia, Kelowna; Marcel and his children Ryley, Jenna, Drake, North Battleford; Cerise, North Battleford.

Ellen (Ken) Oppold, Whitehorse and their children Jill Marie Oppold, Portage la Prairie; Jay Michael Oppold, Whitehorse; Jody Lynn Oppold and her children Bella Archambault-Oppold and Ilianna Reeves-Oppold,  Whitehorse.

He was predeceased by his daughter Wendy Waters, sisters Emily Maundrell and Jean Bellavance.

In keeping with his wishes there will not be a funeral service.

We would like to send a special thank you to the wonderful staff on Ward 4 at Battlefords District Care Centre, especially Val and Kim who kept Sid laughing.
