TRAVERSE CITY - Sidney Glen Cline, 79, of Traverse City, died Sunday at Munson Medical Center in Traverse City.
Born Dec. 26, 1919, in Napoleon, Ohio, he was the son of A.M. and Jenny (Davis) Cline.
Sidney lived and worked for most of his life in Traverse City, where he married his childhood sweetheart, Jean Weese, and was happily in love for the most part of 60 years.
He worked at many things, including a job at Parson's Manufacturing where he helped to build the first-stage fuel tubes for the first man to the moon missions. He retired from United Technologies as the maintenance supervisor. Sidney enjoyed hunting, fishing, gardening and having friends over for dinner and to play cards. He also enjoyed the companionship he found in new friends while playing euchre at the senior center. He will be sorely missed by all his friends and relatives who wish him a peaceful life hereafter.
Survivors include his wife, Jean of Traverse City; his children, Rose Ann Cline-Headley of Phoenix, Ariz., and Art (Kathy Gordon-Cline) Cline of Traverse City; his grandchildren, Chad William, Valarie Cook, Joshua Cline, and Erinn Cline; and his granddaughter-in-law-to-be, Amie Chapman.
Sidney was preceded in death by his mother; father; two sisters, Melba Newman and Alice Griffith; and two brothers, Wayne and Art Cline.
No funeral services will be held. There will be a get-together at the American Legion Hall on Hastings Street in Traverse City from 2 to 5 p.m. Saturday for all who wish to come.
Arrangements are by the Reynolds-Jonkhoff Funeral Home in Traverse City.
