Dewan, Alwyn Clare, April 19, 1932 – December 22, 2015. It is with great sadness that the family announce the passing of Alwyn Clare Dewan of Midnight Lake, Saskatchewan on Tuesday, December 22, 2015 at the Foothills Medical Center in Calgary, Alberta. Alwyn was born April 19, 1932 and spent most of his time growing up in Northern Saskatchewan. He married Lorna Dewan, of Hanley, Saskatchewan, in 1964 and they settled down in Regina, Saskatchewan. Alwyn had a variety of skills and job opportunities but spent most of his life and hobby time as a horticulturalist which was his passion. He was very family oriented and enjoyed tending to his plants and gardens whiles supporting the growth of his children. Later in life, Alwyn returned to his roots moving back to Glaslyn, Saskatchewan until such time that his family wanted him to be closer to them in Calgary, having moved there in 2013 until his passing. Alwyn is survived by son, Douglas Dewan of Calgary; daughter, Sharla Dewan and her two sons, Isaiah Dewan and Nolan Dewan of Sequim, Washington; sisters, Marlene Bell and Maureen Koski; and brothers Bill and Marl Dewan; along with numerous nieces and nephews. Alwyn was predeceased by his father John Thomas Dewan; and mother Marie Josephine Rosalie Dewan (nee Nolin); and older brother Bert Dewan. Alwyn has asked that a celebration of his life be held at a later date, with dear friends and family in Northern Saskatchewan, with a request to all who knew him to come forward with your life experiences and photos in remembrance of Al in order to enrich his memorial for all of those who knew and loved him.
