Wah Cheow Sid
December 29, 1950 - March 26, 2022
Wah Cheow Sid was born on December 29, 1950 in San Antonio, TX to Bock On Sid and Hong Lun Lau. He passed away peacefully, surrounded by his loved ones on March 26, 2022 in his hometown of San Antonio. Wah had an entrepreneurial spirit at an early age. He helped his parents open their family restaurant “The Golden Dragon” on Hillcrest on September 15, 1972, which was later relocated to Babcock and Callaghan. During the 15 years at “The Golden Dragon”, Wah worked tirelessly and with passion to serve his patrons delicious Chinese food and deliver a great dining experience. After the restaurant closed its doors in 1987, he worked various occupations before beginning his career at the Bexar County Courthouse. During his tenure at the Bexar County Courthouse, Wah worked in the Deed and Vital Records, Plats, and the Probate department. He spent over twenty years assisting attorneys, judges, and his colleagues before retiring in May 2011. Wah’s retirement from the Bexar County Courthouse allowed him to focus on his pastimes. His pastimes included bowling, dining out with family and friends, listening to Rock ‘n’ Roll (especially Elvis Presley, Buddy Holly, Ricky Nelson, Roy Orbison), watching reruns of his favorite television shows, maintaining his 1978 and 1979 Cadillac Coupe deVilles, and cheering for his beloved San Antonio Spurs. Wah is survived by his loving wife of 46 years, Olivia Chow Sid; son, Danny Ng (daughter-in-law, Hema); daughters, Catherine Sid and Amy Saideepane (son-in-law, Jerry); sister, Lai Quock (brother-in-law, Billy); brother, Bock Sid; granddaughter, Avery Ng; and numerous nephews, nieces, and cousins.
