Alan Primo Midena 1950-2015 For those of us that knew him, life will never be the same as we mourn the loss of Alan Midena, who passed suddenly at his home on Friday, August 28th. Alan will always be remembered as the most amazing father to his daughters Paula, Adria (Rob Madill) and Marlene (Jason Kaufman). He loved spending time with his grandchildren Aidan, Ashton and Amelia Madill and Isabella and Maddison Kaufman. They loved their Nono very much. Alan was the beloved son of Alfredo (pre-deceased) and Emma Midena and the big brother of Peter, Louise Grindatto (Lou) and Doreen Laamanen (Bryan predeceased). Alan will be missed by his nieces and nephews Peter, Christopher, Elissa, Curtis and Corey. Alan was also loved by many aunts, uncles and cousins. He took great care of his cousin Fermino Midena until his passing in March of 2013. Alan worked alongside his father and brother in the family construction business for all of his career and had just started his retirement. An avid outdoorsman, Alan loved spending time on the lake and the island with his brother Peter. He had a passion for his beautiful garden and was an excellent cook, spending hours cooking delicious meals with his mother Emma. Alan loved nothing more than a great meal and a glass of wine with his family. He was so loved and will be missed by so many people. A Memorial Mass will be held at Our Lady of Hope Church, 591 Brennan Street, Sudbury on Friday, September 4th, 2015 at 10:30am. (Friends may call at the church after 10am) Donations can be made in his honour to the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF) or the Canadian Wildlife Federation.
