Alvin was taught truth and character from many mentors before becoming a mentor himself. He spent his life in service of others. He was a Boy Scout leader which lead him to become a Mason and a Shriner - reaching the level of 32nd degree in the Masonic Temple. He loved all of the outdoors; farming, hunting, fishing and boating. He planted over 500 black walnut trees on his 140 acre farm in Perry. He also enjoyed making handmade cedar strip canoes. He was a strong Republican and was involved with Michigan State Government most of his life. Alvin worked as a Fiscal Analyst before retiring from the State. He and Mary enjoyed many Winters in Florida where they made many friends and were very active.
Alvin is survived by his wife Mary (Klapko) Dasen: Four sons, Alvin (Paula) Dasen, Ronald (Sandy) Dasen, Theodore (Janie) Dasen, Michael (Kim) Dasen: daughter, Cheryl Wiedeman; 7 grandchildren, 8 great grandchildren along with many other loving friends and family.
He was predeceased by his Father, Gerald Dasen, Mother, Bessie Dasen, Son-in-law Steve Wiedeman.
His life can best be summed up by this, "If not me, who?"
