Ridgewood Police Department : Passing of retired Lieutenant Sidney Richard Smith
It is with deep sorrow that we announce the passing of retired Lieutenant Sidney Richard Smith. Lt. Smith affectionately known as “Zoomer” proudly served the Village of Ridgewood from 1962 -1987. I am proud to say that I had the privilege of serving under his command. He is survived by his wife Renetta, sons Steven and Kevin and daughter Cheryl.
A memorial service and viewing will be held at CC Van Emburgh Funeral Home on Wednesday 7/16/14 from 11:00 am – 1:00 pm. Followed by a grave side service at George Washington Cemetery in Paramus.
I would like to thank the Smith family for sharing Zoomer with our community. He helped to make Ridgewood a safer place to live, work and play
Chief John M. Ward
