David Leon Siders, 78, of Fairfield, VA passed away on Friday, September 10, 2021.
David was born on Sept. 15, 1942 to the late Walter H and D Lucille (Lorenzen) Siders in Bowling Green, Ohio. He is survived by numerous cousins. He was preceded in death by his wife Sharon Huffman Siders and his parents. Mr. Siders was a parishioner of St. Patrick Catholic Church in Lexington, VA since 2003. He was a part of the 1960 graduating class at Bowling Green High School. He went on and received a Bachelor degree and then a Master of Business Administration from Bowling Green State University. Then Mr. Siders attained a Doctor of Jurisprudence at the College of William and Mary, and was admitted to practice law by the Virginia Bar Association. He taught as an adjunct professor of law at Case Western Reserve University, John Carroll University, Notre Dame College, Cleveland State University, and Bridgewater College. He also worked for Reynolds Metals Company, Midland Ross Corporation, and BP America.
After being confined to his home after surviving cancer, he never stopped reading and learning. David was an accomplished individual who earned the Albert Nelson Marquis Lifetime Achievement Award in June 2020. But what gave him the most enjoyment were his three cats: Rene, Smokey, and Blue Boy. He will be missed.
