He attended Guardian Angel Catholic School in Wallis. His childhood in Wallis instilled a life long passion for deer and duck hunting, fishing, raising cattle and gardening. He didn’t care if his deer had a big rack as long as it was legal. His countless racks are proudly displayed throughout his home and barn.
He was well known for his sense of humor and his countless stories of WWII where he served as a medic and more. He was very proud of every family member who served and stood tall for each and every one. After the war he took an agricultural schooling course. He devoted his time and love for his dog, Bingo and his cattle. Lidge was a bachelor all his life. He devoted 35 years working at WKM (Cooper Industries) in Large Gate Valve Division from February 27, 1956 – May 1, 1991. During his tenure, Lidge and his fellow co-workers built the first Alaska Pipeline Valve, receiving recognition for the quality of his work.
