He worked as Coordinator in the safe operation of train tracks in Australia. Locally he worked at Pick-N-Save grocery store retiring in 2016.
He was a gifted athlete and competed in bowling and tennis, two sports in which he won many competitions and trophies.
Siggy's favorite thing was doing innocent shenanigan's on people he loved. He enjoyed playing bags at family gatherings, canasta with three special ladies, yahtzee, card night, watching the Green Bay Packers and playing slots on the internet.
He had seven feathered friends he cared for that became his source of pleasure. He also spoiled his furry grandkids Ruby and Oscar.
Siggy will be remembered for his love for others, Australian lingo, quick zingers that made so many laugh, his love of bakery and licorice, and the way he would say "Honey Please"!
