Since its almost a week away and there is time, would it be appropriate to take up a collection and send a floral arrangement in the name of his friends on the CelicaSupra forum? Somebody'd have to figure out exactly where to send it. Usually it's to the funeral home but sounds like it may just be only a graveside service.
Stephen Alan Sidman died July 10, 2015, at the age of 48. The Ahwahnee resident was born Nov. 15, 1966, in Tucson, Ariz. He was a self-employed web designer.
Mr. Sidman is survived by his sister Stephanie Norgard.
A graveside service will be held 10 a.m., July 23, at Oakhill Cemetery.
I talked to the director of the cemetery and he confirmed a graveside service will be held 10 a.m., July 23, at Oakhill Cemetery...He stated any online flowers companies FTD, 1800Flowers can provide delivery to the cemetery. From Hwy 99 approx 45 miles on Hwy 41 from Fresno near the junction of Hwy 41 and Hwy 49...
The cemetery is very small, parking is available, and near the historic church, he requested that our members parked on the asphalt...
Sadly, I have never met him so i do not know, but does he have a family ?
I was thinking, instead of sending flowers we could send his family any money collected.
Flowers are nice but the cost of a funeral can be overwhelming, as well as other unexpected costs.
Please let us know if anyone is taking up a collection.

I think that would only be appropriate if you knew the family and their situation. Who knows, he may have had insurance or even prearranged burial plans. I didn't know him well, only ever talked about Supras with him. There was only one survivor listed in the obituary, a sister, so it didn't sound to me like he left anyone in need.
Unfortunately, I've never met Stephen. I did enjoy reading his webpage when I signed up for this forum many years ago. RIP Stephen, thank you for all that you did for the Celica Supra community.
Sad news, indeed. From the early Yahoo email list, to meeting him in Vegas, emails over the years, and his unique humorous posts on this forum, he'll be missed.
He'll live on in the memories of those who knew him.
