Sid was raised in Major County and attended grade school at Orienta before graduating high school at Oklahoma Bible Academy in 1957. On December 20, 1958, he was united in marriage to Evelyn Joy Kinnard at Dacoma. To this union three sons were born: Gary, Jamey and Mike.

He was a faithful member of the Dacoma Church of God. He and Evelyn enjoyed traveling many places with the Do Little Camping Club.

His family was a very important part of his life, and he loved his wife, kids, grandkids, and great-grandkids with all his heart.

Besides his parents, Leon Penner and Sarah Becker, he was preceded in death by his twin siblings, Earlin Penner and Erma "Pinkey" Longhofer, and a sister, Evelena Fields.
