Bryan Charles Bidwell, Sr.

September 28, 1943 - December 19, 2020

Bryan Charles Bidwell, Sr. SOUTH GLENS FALLS- Bryan Charles Bidwell Sr. 77, formerly of Summit, NY, but most recently of Harrison Ave, South Glens Falls, passed away on Saturday, December 19th, 2020 after a brief illness. Bryan was the son of Charles Bidwell and Lucille Pingrey of South Glens Falls. He was a graduate of South Glens Falls High School, class of 1962. He served in the Air force from 1962 to 1965, stationed near Watertown, NY, where he was a radar technician. In 1966, he married the love of his life, Nancie Dyke of Gurn Springs, NY and started a family. Bryan worked at Ciba-Geigy for over 25 years holding various positions before spending almost 10 years at Ames Goldsmith. After raising four sons in Gansevoort, NY, Bryan and Nancie retired to Summit, NY where they spent nearly 20 years establishing and maintaining Swallow Hill, a huge flower farm with over 500 varieties of daylilies. Like the generations of hard-working farmers before him, Bryan loved working the land, eating the vegetables he grew, and enjoying the breathtaking beauty of his flowers. Other activities Bryan enjoyed throughout his life were playing and watching sports and painting nature scenes on slate which he loved sharing with family and friends. Bryan is survived by his wife of 54 years Nancie (Dyke) Bidwell; his twin brother, Bruce Bidwell, of Summit, NY; his sister, Beverly Wheeler, of Whitinsville, MA; four sons: Gene (Kimberly) Bidwell of South Glens Falls; Brad (Beth) Bidwell of Queensbury; Bruce Bidwell of Stuart, Florida; and Bryan (Marie) Bidwell of Kingsbury; 6 grandchildren: Rachael Pleasant, Eric Bidwell, Nicole Grinnell, Kyle Bidwell, Nathan Bidwell, Haley Bidwell, and a step grandchild, Nicholas Bombardier; and one great grandchild, Ashby Pleasant. The family would like to thank the hard work of the entire staff at Irongate Center,the Charles Wood Cancer Center at Glens Falls Hospital, and High Peaks Hospice for their compassionate care. Donations can be made in Bryan's honor to the Animal Shelter of Schoharie Valley, 304 Howe Cave Rd, Howes Cave, NY, 12092. Arrangements are in the care of Regan Denny Stafford Funeral Home 53 Quaker Rd. Queensbury, NY.
