Help find Sean Sidi

We hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving with loved ones.

It was our 3rd Thanksgiving without Sean. We had a small group (15) of family and close friends at our home on Thanksgiving Day. While not with us in body, Sean was VERY 'PRESENT' in our minds and hearts, as many friends shared their fondest memories of Sean. Wrapped in the love of those near and dear, we somehow made it through a very emotional & difficult day. 

Leads are still being called in, thanks to many of you sharing and POSTING. A RECENT TIP (LAST WEEK) was called in (from Golden Gate Park, San Francisco) with a video & picture. Unfortunately it was not Sean. However, I am grateful to the young man who called it in. He told me that he keeps Sean's flier with him. We will continue to keep you updated. 

The surveillance shots we viewed (at Vista Sprinter Station) based on the caller's time, place etc. - were NOT Sean. We emailed the shots to the person who CALLED IN the sighting and he does not believe the screen shots (we sent 2 different persons) was the "Sean" that he saw..however, we did not see any other 'match'. The code enforcement officer did not recall speaking to someone meeting our Sean's description. Therefore, and while the search continues in Oceanside, CA - the sighting remains UNCONFIRMED. 

On April 7th, I MAILED a PRIORITY letter to San Francisco Police Chief GREG SUHR.

My letter informed SFPD POLICE CHIEF GREG SUHR of Sean's upcoming 2 year missing EVENT on May 16th and our intent to share YOUR MEMORIES of Sean.

Sean is still missing...1 Year - 7 months - 25 days.

Sean's phone went dead/turned off at @1:35 pm on May 21, 2013 in a very busy area of Golden Gate Park in San Francisco, CA. Since that time, there has been NO phone, bank card or other electronic activity. Sean - in his compromised/healing physical & mental state - could not have gone far or survived for long on his own. Someone knows something. Our search continues...for Sean, for California Missing Five, for others.

Below: Sea's flier in 'The Good Earth' in Fairfax, THANK YOU Tina A. for your messages of hope & love & for posting Sean's fliers.

MORE Random pictures of Sean: 1) Sean & Danielle 2) Sean (2nd from right) with sister Danielle & cousins Rachel, Sidney & Gareth the summer before he vanished. We post these to remember Sean... ..his smile, his laughter & all the LOVE & JOY he brought to our life.   Sean is more than a missing person...MUCH more.

SOCKS, socks, SOCKS:   IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO HELP IN THIS EFFORT, please consider bringing 1 or several pairs of NEW WARM SOCKS  (MEN SIZE 8-12 or WOMEN 6-12) TO OUR ‘SOCKS FOR SEAN’ DRIVE ON SUNDAY, DECEMBER 14^TH .  A wool blend would be warmest but ANY sock donation would be  GREAT.

See www.seansidi.com or www.facebook.com/findseansidi for more information on critically injured Sean SIDI (age 19) missing from San Francisco CA May 21, 2013. Sean may not know his name or his DIRE MEDICAL NEEDS due to a severe traumatic brain injury suffered shortly before going missing. 

Danielle (Sean’s sister) has started her junior year in high school. I pray the year will see her drawing strength & comfort from the knowledge that we & many others will NEVER stop searching for Sean. To see her brother on the edge of death, survive against tremendous odds, then to lose him again in this way --- is a trauma no child should have to endure... I have assured Danielle many times that her dad and I will search for Sean until the END of our days. Even past this time, I am comforted with the knowledge that NCMEC & other missing person’s organizations will keep the search for Sean going.

We have printed the FIRST BATCH of Sean’s NEW FLIER. We realize that many of you have been posting Sean’s fliers for many months… However, if anyone still has “posting” energy remaining TO post even 1 NEW flier, please email lynnkching@yahoo.com with your mailing address to have a few of Sean’s NEW fliers mailed to you (anywhere in U.S.). Alternatively, you may save the flier to your computer & print it. Despite the reach of social MEDIA, the posting of hard copy fliers remain CRITICAL in the search for Sean & any missing person.

LA BOULANGE, a French bakery recently acquired by Starbucks Coffee has offered to POST Sean’s NEW FLIER in their San Francisco locations. While Starbucks will not post the flier in their windows, they will post SEAN’S NEW FLIER on 22 community boards at various Starbucks cafes in the Bay Area, IF space is available. The date of posting has not been identified, however, I HOPE that supporters of the search for Sean will provide a photo of the flier, or post a flier on a Starbucks (or other) community board if one is not already up.
