College Students HELP Search for SEAN SIDI

Recently, I was contacted by Dimitri Barton, who had returned to San Francisco from college for the summer. Although Dimitri only knew Sean through mutual friends and various get-togethers, he wanted to get involved in the search for Sean. 

Yesterday, Dimitri and friends Drew Forest and Lucas Howard spent the DAY spreading the word about the search for Sean. They managed to get Sean’s fliers into store windows and cafes around SAN FRANCISCO. They distributed Sean’s fliers to pedestrians in the Haight and Castro area, and spoke to MANY street youth living in Golden Gate Park, WHILE HANDING OUT Sean’s FLIER SHIRTS.

From the response from people who called me, the trio's youth, compassion and humanity seem to have struck a chord in those they encountered. 

One individual who had received a flier from Dimitri and his friends called and put me in touch with a young man who he felt might have useful “Sean information”. This young man said that he had previously lived on the street for several years. He stated that he and MANY kids living on the streets had heard about the search for Sean (SIDI), though he did not know anyone personally who had seen Sean. He confirmed that many living on the streets travel a circuit (some as far as the East Coast), returning to San Francisco at various times. He felt that it was “probable” that Sean had been taken in by a group of kids, or possibly by an “older person”. 

A young woman living in Golden Gate Park advised Dimitri & friends that she saw someone resembling Sean in Eugene, Oregon about 4 months ago (If you know anyone in EUGENE, OR willing to POST a FEW FLIERS, PARTICULARLY AT SOUP KITCHENS, PLEASE LET ME KNOW). 

Although we still have NOT received a confirmed SIGHTING of SEAN, it is good to know that the WORD IS OUT ON THE STREETS, THAT we ARE SEARCHING FOR SEAN. 

THANK YOU - DIMITRI, DREW AND LUCAS - for HELPING us SEARCH FOR SEAN!!!! It would be a dream come true for us - if Sean could thank you himself. 

Our THANKS also to many others helping search for Sean. Please send a photo if you can!! 415.713.5913.

SEAN SIDI UPDATE OF JUNE 10, 2014

TODAY 6/10/2014 - A teacher at a school in Stockton, CA called after one of her students reported seeing a young man resembling Sean. There was no photo & this sighting remains UNCONFIRMED. THANK YOU to the student and teacher for keeping and eye out for Sean & for CALLING US. IF YOU CAN, PLEASE POST A FEW FLIERS IN THE STOCKTON, CALIFORNIA AREA. We will gladly MAIL SEAN'S FLIERS TO anyone requesting them. To receive fliers, email lynnkching@yahoo.com with your address. 


YESTERDAY 6/9/2014 - A young man in San Francisco who was looking at a flier of Sean (SIDI) advised a woman walking by that HE was "Sean". The woman called me and sent a PHOTO of "Sean". Unfortunately, it was NOT our Sean. THANK YOU to the WOMAN FOR TAKING THE PHOTO & FOR TAKING THE TIME TO CHECK WITH ME. YOU NEVER KNOW - when it will be OUR SEAN!!! For those helping us search for SEAN, please remember that SEAN may NOT KNOW HIS NAME. IF YOU SEE SOMEONE WHO MIGHT be SEAN (EVEN if the person says he is NOT Sean), PLEASE TAKE A PHOTO AND CALL ME 415.713.5913. 

WEEKEND OF 6/7-6/8/14. Someone reported that 7 out of 8 POLICE OFFICERS he approached AT THE UNION STREET FAIR in SAN FRANCISCO HAD NOT HEARD OF SEAN!! IF YOU SEE A POLICE OFFICER (ANYWHERE), PLEASE HAND HIM/HER A FLIER. That being said, many others (non-police people) at the UNION STREET FAIR also had NOT HEARD OF SEAN...Obviously, our family still has much work to do....

It has been over a year since Sean vanished. We feel drained and exhausted from the roller coaster of emotions, from missing Sean and from NOT KNOWING. Nonetheless, we continue ON. Thank YOU all for your help. 

If you would like Sean's fliers or a 'FLIER T-SHIRT" TO HELP SPREAD THE WORD, please message on FB or email lynnkching@yahoo.com.

A (former) MISSING PERSON''S STORY OF HOPE FOR SEAN SIDI'S FRIENDS & FAMILY


Since Sean vanished a year ago, Claude, Danielle and I have battled crippling grief, despair and depression. At times, HOPE seemed elusive amidst the pain of Sean’s disappearance. 

An anonymous caller recently reminded us that there is always HOPE. This is his STORY. 

The caller said that 15 years ago he suffered a traumatic brain injury. One day – during the early stages of his recovery, he was suddenly beset by a jumble of thoughts, voices in his head, and a loss of memory. He felt compelled to leave. For 2 years, he wandered homeless (& MISSING) and lived off the kindness of those around him. After a 2 year period had passed, the caller slowly regained some of his memory – and was able to contact his family. 

We can only HOPE that WE will be lucky enough to be reunited with SEAN one day soon. 

To everyone, including Sean’s FRIENDS returning home from college FOR THE SUMMER, please keep your eyes open for Sean among the HOMELESS. Sean may not remember his name, his former life or YOU. 

However, we hope that YOU will recognize SEAN (& call us)!! 

In Hope,

The Sidi Family 

PS, Thank you to all who volunteered to distribute Sean’s flier shirts. The mailing/deliveries will go out on Thursday and Friday. 

PSS.  Please email lynnkching@yahoo.com if you would like a flier shirt for yourself and/or anyone else willing to wear the shirt.
