Rick was the son of the late Austin E. and Dorothy O. (Osborne) Siddons and was born in Delaware County, PA. He was a graduate of Monsignor Bonner and completed 2 years at the University of Pennsylvania.

Rick, a decorated Eagle Scout, was a certified range instructor and an award-winning marksman. He was an avid fisherman but an even bigger hunter, traveling as far as British Columbia, where he successfully “bagged” a trophy bear and wolf! He shared his love of hunting and the outdoors with his children, as well as his grandsons. He took pride in his family, which gave him great happiness.

He was the Beloved husband of Maureen Devlin Siddons; Devoted father of Michael Siddons (Theresa), Daniel Siddons, and Katie Scheckner (Jeff); Cherished “Pop” to Devlin Scheckner, Colin Scheckner, Michael Siddons, Christopher Siddons, and Jeffrey Scheckner (Chelsea); Great-Grandfather to Robert Scheckner and Lawrence Scheckner; Loving brother of Gary Siddons (Janice), Alan Siddons (Claire), and predeceased by his brother Jeff.
