Siegy immigrated to Canada with his mother and siblings when he was eighteen and learned to work very hard at numerous jobs eventually becoming a respected businessman and entrepreneur of Peninsula Upholstering (Flooring) from 1963 – 2010, President and Member of the Virgil Lions Club, St. Catharines Business Club, and the Virgil Business Association for many years.
Siegy loved being surrounded by his family especially at the cottage, boating, snowmobiling, and playing cards.
