[post_page_title]Losing his wife[/post_page_title]
Perhaps the reason Sid felt so inclined to look after the gravesite is because he knows what it is like to lose a member of his family. Though she was much more important to him than a pet, Sid lost his wife about three and a half years before he stumbled across Duchie’s tombstone.
He understands loss and what it means to lose a loved one. His wife may no longer be with him, but she is still in his thoughts and heart.
