Closing sides with multiple angles

Hey all.  I got this cover lid that I need to recreate and having some issues.  Can someone explain to me how to continue the sides where I can have them look like the picture attached.  I was thinking just use the arc line tool but there has to be a simpler way.  Don't worry about the squared edges as I will Fillet them all later.  I just need to get the side corners enclosed just like the picture attached.

I took as many dimensions from your model as were available.  They were strange dimensions to say the least.  I guessed at dimensions I did not have.  I would approach this issue using a different method than you are trying use.  Model attached.

Hi! Another approach is to use Revolve command to fill the corners (4 Revolve features or 1 Revolve plus irrors).

Many thanks!

Sorry for the delay in response as they called me into work.  This is exactly the look Im looking for, and the fewest steps is even better.  Thanks as always John.  You have always steered me in the right direction.
