Obituary For Sidney "Sid" A. Julson

Buffalo WY – Sidney “Sid” A. Julson, age 80, passed away peacefully on July 1, 2023 with his loving wife, Ruth, by his side. They shared many wonderful years in Milwaukee and DeForest, WI. During retirement, they enjoyed their favorite places in Wyoming, Arizona, and Saskatchewan. Sid always had big “Goals”. He achieved all of them by serving in the U.S Army, attending college in Milwaukee, being a pilot and flight instructor, and owning Four Lakes Aviation. He loved flying his planes to his amazing properties.

Sid was a loving husband, father, grandpa, and great grandfather. He is survived by his wife Ruth; children Julie and James (Candi) Julson, stepchildren Gary (Kimberly) Draeger, Jean (Danny) Widener and Sandra Kertz; grandchildren Christopher, Michelle, Danielle, Katie, Kelly, and Cally Julson, Jennifer (Matt) Hastings, Lindsey (Bret) Priaulx, William (Lauren) Draeger, Jessica and Alexandria Widener, Carlie (Roy) and Garret Kertz; and many great grandchildren. Sid is further survived by his brother John Julson and sister Ardis (Jim) Rodel. He will be reunited with his stepson Donald, grandson Justin and his brothers and sisters in heaven.

In lieu of flowers, memorials would be appreciated to the American Cancer Society or a charity of your choice.

what our families say

Tiffany Foster went out of her way to fulfill all my requests, talked me through problems I was facing, and tried to make me feel as comfortable as possible when I was a wreck, totally crushed, and I thank her with all of my heart for that.

James S. | July 2020

The professional manner of the staff made a difficult time a little easier.

Lynda R. | July 2020

Services provided for both parents were perfect, on time, and no issues. Brenda is awesome and strong!

Michael M. | July 2020

Skyler was absolutely amazing. She was so caring and helpful through this whole process. She even went above and beyond to meet with us in DeForest and even to make a stop at our home to drop off or pick up anything needed. While it was a small gesture, it was so helpful and greatly appreciated.
