Other People
Faye Lauren (Wife #1, 1974-78, Born: 1952)
Classmate, graduated in same class with degree in Chemistry, married Sid sometime after graduation party. Kept up pretense of marriage four years. They spent all that time mostly apart or ignoring each other. Faye was later arrested in 1986 for possession with intent to sell, still serving sentence in Virginia women's correctional facility.
Wendy Prichard (Wife #2, 1983-87, Born: 1949)
Met at a bar, surprisingly developed a relationship the normal way. Sid OD'ed several months after, Wendy got him to a hospital and while there Sid proposed. She agreed on condition he go thru rehab. Daughter Emily was born late in 1983. Sid panicked and sabatoged relationship shortly thereafter. Divorced after Wendy discovered Sid's great American road-trip for book research was an excuse to cheat and pick drug habit(s) back up.
Sarah Dawson (Wife #3, 1996-96, Born: 1974)
Waitress, fan, and second/last rushed marriage. Sarah, a diagnosed schizophrenic, stopped taking medication shortly after wedding... Later stabbed Sid in shoulder with kitchen knife while under delusion he was an imposter. First divorce Sid filed for.
Emily Prichard (Daughter, Born: 1983)
Emily remembers very little of Sid from before the divorce, and Wendy effectively poisoned her against him in the years since... Not that she had to try hard as much as Sid failed to keep in touch. Lost what little respect she had for him after his marriage to Sarah, cut off contact until recent accident.
Donovan Myers (Friend, Born: 1952, Died: 2006)
College classmate, and only person Sid ever really identified as friend... This despite fact they crossed paths twice in 20 years since graduation. Sid later moved to Seattle to improve on friendship, ultimately found out Donovan was not someone he'd want to be close with. Too late, as Donnie later left box of damning files with Sid and, worse, was arrested and committed suicide within a week.
