Help find Sean Sidi

Another year gone by without our precious Sean…there are no words...   

Despite the passage of time, SO many of you continue to search, hope, post and pray that we might one day experience a miracle and hold Sean, SAFE, in our arms again.   

Below are a few year-end pictures of some of your efforts: 1st Photo, Rosie F & friends prepared bags for the homeless in Marin, CA & included Sean's Fliers!!!  2nd & 3rd Photos: Sean's Flier on Union Square, San Francisco, among hundreds of shoppers & tourists.  Thank you Rosie, Ann and ALL for supporting our search for Sean!!!  

See www.facebook.com/findseansidi or www.seansidi.com for information on Sean Sidi, age 19, who went missing from San Francisco CA on May 21, 2013, shortly after suffering a traumatic brain injury.    Sean may not know his name or his dire medical needs due to his injury.    Email lynnkching@yahoo.com with your address to have a packet of Sean's fliers mailed to you anywhere in the U.S.

Another year ending with no sign that Sean is alive, but no body identified as his. We go to work, we live our lives, we go on & YET we DO NOT.   We can never truly move forward without resolution.   We ache to hold Sean & dream of seeing him alive.  However, if Sean is not alive, we want to know. "Not knowing" can drive one to the depths of depression & beyond.....

How do we survive with any semblance of grace & dignity? Perhaps it rests with acknowledging the needs & suffering of others & helping in whatever way possible.

TO THAT END, we are proceeding (it was on hold)  with 'SOCKS for SEAN". The intent is to distribute a few WARM, NEW SOCKS to those in need. This will NOT cure the ills of the world, nor will it find Sean, but its something... IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO PARTICIPATE in "Socks for SEAN":

1. Please DISTRIBUTE 1 or 2 PAIRS of WARM SOCKS TO homeless NEAR YOU & include Sean's flier. THIS WILL HELP SPREAD THE WORD about SEAN & HELP someone in need. Some, like Tina A. in Marin share Sean's fliers while feeding the homeless. Danielle and I generally distribute Sean's flier with a $1 bill. THIS is the same idea, but with SOCKS.

IF YOU ARE ABLE, SEND A PICTURE, OR LET US KNOW WHERE YOU DISTRIBUTED YOUR SOCK(S).

2. IF YOU PREFER THAT WE DISTRIBUTE THE SOCKS, Send or drop off your sock contribution to:

Claude SIDI, 450 Sutter St, Suite 1819, San Francisco. CA 94108

**We will distribute the socks January & February 2015.

THANK YOU SAN FRANCISCO POLICE - FOR RESPONDING SO QUICKLY TO A "SEAN SIDI" SIGHTING TONIGHT.

Tonight, a caring San Francisco citizen called San Francisco Police on their NON-EMERGENCY LINE: 415.553.0123. She informed police of the Sean sighting at California/Polk & reminded police that SEAN was 'CRITICALLY MISSING" with a brain injury (VERY IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR POLICE IF YOU CALL IN A SIGHTING.)

The citizen called me & advised me that POLICE from the NORTHERN STATION in San Francisco responded immediately.

UNFORTUNATELY, IT WAS NOT SEAN.

NONETHELESS, we would like to thank San Francisco POLICE for responding so quickly, and the SAN FRANCISCO resident for calling police on a possible Sean sighting.

You ALL - by sharing the POSTS, and LOOKING for SEAN during your DAY, allow us to HOPE that Sean may be found one day - soon!!

STARTING THIS WEEK, WE WILL START DISTRIBUTING THE ATTACHED FLIER IN AN EFFORT TO GET PEOPLE TO SEND PICTURES of "Sean".

PLEASE EMAIL lynnkching@yahoo.com with your address IF YOU CAN HELP POST 5-10 of THE NEW FLIERS ON COMMUNITY BOARDS, OR OTHER LOCATIONS WHICH MAY STAND A CHANCE OF STAYING UP FOR AWHILE.

MISSING man from Connecticut, FOUND six years later in NEW YORK – BY COMPASSIONATE POLICE

This is such a HEARTWARMING story and a tribute to this police officer's humanity! We know with certainly that SEAN, like the homeless man in this story, is unable to seek help for himself and unable to find us on his own. INSTEAD, SEAN needs US to FIND HIM!!

Please help us keep the search for Sean (Sidi) alive by helping us to post his fliers, and by sharing Sean's story with all those you meet (including POLICE officers).

Next: Report from OREGON re: search for Sean!

See www.seansidi.com or www.facebook.com/findseansidi for more information on critically injured 19 year old (age time of missing) missing from San Francisco, CA May 21, 2013. Please email lynnkching@yahoo.com with your mailing address, to have Sean's fliers sent to you - anywhere in the U.S.

Last week, Claude (Sean’s dad), and friends Randy & Steve attended the July 2014 Rainbow Family gathering in Utah, to spread the word about the SEARCH FOR SEAN (SIDI). They TALKED TO MANY PEOPLE & DISTRIBUTED Sean’s fliers, and "Sean TOOTHBRUSHES" engraved with “seansidi.com 415.713.5913”.

SOME remembered Claude’s search of Sean in Montana, LAST YEAR at THE July 2013 RAINBOW gathering in Montana.

MANY said that they had seen Sean’s FLIERS at REST STOPS along the drive from California to UTAH (thanks to many of YOU POSTING SEAN’S FLIERS!!).

One young man insisted he saw Sean in Boulder, COLORADO. Coincidentally, Sean was enrolled at U of Colorado at Boulder before his accident. Please SHARE SEAN’S FLIER with those YOU KNOW in Boulder, Colorado!

ALL those whom Claude met at the Rainbow Family gathering WARMLY SUPPORTED Claude’s SEARCH FOR SEAN, and said they would keep an eye open for him.

BELOW ARE PICTURES FROM THE 2014 Rainbow Family Gathering. CLAUDE (Sean’s DAD) is in a WHITE T-SHIRT & COWBOY HAT. Note that MANY in the photos are holding their “seansidi.com 415.713.5913” TOOTHBRUSHES,

See www.seansidi.com or www.facebook.com/findseansidi for more information on the search for critically injured Sean Sidi, age 19 (time of missing), missing from San Francisco, CA since May 21, 2013. Sean is 5’5”, 120 lbs, slim build; Asian/White; dark brown hair & eyes; WEARS SILVER DENTAL BRACES; has dimples; right eye droops slightly. Sean may not know his name and may be disoriented due to a traumatic brain injury suffered shortly before going missing. He is in URGENT need of medical care.

AS SOME of YOU may know, on May 21, 2013, the day that Sean vanished from San Francisco, CA, Sean’s last CELL PHONE call WAS PINGED by police to the eastern end of Golden Gate Park.  Coincidentally, people headed to the Rainbow Family gathering (in Montana in 2013) were at Golden Gate Park at SAME DATE, TIME AND LOCATION of Sean’s cell phone ping. 

We do NOT know whether members of the Rainbow Family gave Sean a ride.  We DO know that Sean REMAINS MISSING, since vanishing without a trace from San Francisco on May 21, 2013.  

Last Year, Claude (Sean's dad) traveled to the Rainbow Family gathering in Montana to search for Sean.  The Rainbow Family warmly supported Claude in his search for Sean.  This year (July 2014), friends of the search for Sean Sidi, will travel to the Rainbow Family gathering in UTAH, to spread the word about the search for Sean.

PLEASE HELP SPREAD THE WORD about the search for SEAN SIDI !!!!   If YOU know anyone traveling to the Rainbow Family gathering AND/or anyone WHO  LIVES in UTAH,  PLEASE have them keep an EYE OPEN FOR SEAN.

Thank you "A Light For The Lost And Missing" for Sean Sidi's Flier and For Helping Us Spread the Word About Our Search for Sean. 

Having a MISSING loved one is CERTAINLY SO TRAUMATIC no one could possibly imagine OR describe the devastation, anguish and pain suffered (unless going through this tragedy themselves). We are so VERY thankful to the MANY caring individuals and organizations who WILLINGLY HELP spread the word about Sean (and others missing).

PLEASE send PHOTO to AND CALL 415.713.5913 IF YOU THINK THAT YOU SEE SEAN.   PLEASE ***DO NOT*** CALL SFPD AS THEY DO NOT HAVE THE RESOURCES TO FOLLOW UP ON TIPS AS WE DO.

We will mail Sean's Fliers to ANYONE requesting them. Send message on FB or email lynnkching@yahoo.com with your address to receive fliers.
