David G Sydney, of Boynton Beach FL, passed away peacefully at home on November 9th, 2023, at the age of 92. Born David Sydney Goldberg on February 12, 1931, in Brooklyn, NY to Alexander Goldberg and Roslyn Raved Goldberg, David grew up on the Upper West Side of Manhattan. He graduated from Horace Mann School in 1948, followed by John’s Hopkins University and NYU Law School, after which he changed his name to David G Sydney and married Lois Elaine Merdinger. They lived in New Rochelle NY, and he worked as a lawyer in Manhattan writing commercial leases. Shortly thereafter, David and his family, which then included infant daughter Laura, moved to Maryland where he was a civilian defense attorney in the Army. David often regaled friends and family with stories of his time in the military. After his Army service, David moved to CT to work as secretary, treasurer, comptroller and legal counsel for The American Fabrics Company, which was co- owner by his father in-law. During his time in Fairfield County CT, David enjoyed classical music, playing tennis, golf, boating, and skiing. After his divorce from Lois, David met and married the love of his life, Frances Mendelson Weintraub. For David’s second act, he became a realtor, and the couple worked together in the real estate business in Fairfield County CT, along with David’s daughter Laura and specialized in selling luxury homes built by Fran’s brother. After an early retirement the couple moved to Boynton Beach full time in the late 1990’s so David could play more golf which he so enjoyed. David is survived by his son Evan Sydney, daughter Laura Sydney-Pulton and her husband Ted Pulton and grandchildren Devin Pulton, Dr. Danielle Pulton and her husband Dr. Dane Grenda. Additionally, he is survived by three step children: Joshua and Noah Weintraub, Nina Isaac and their families. David was pre- deceased by his two wives and son Ronald Sydney.
