Nick Vidito: the heartbeat of his community
It’s impossible to miss the pride in the voices of Joy and Rodney Vidito when they talk about their son Nick. There’s an undertone of sadness as well, but it’s overwhelmed by precious memories of what this exceptional young man accomplished before succumbing to muscular dystrophy in 2016 at the age of 28. Nick’s memory will live on in the hearts of all who knew him, though, and thanks to the efforts of several alumni and friends, his legacy will be brought to the fore when the Nicholas Vidito Memorial Hockey Award is presented to a deserving Acadia hockey student-athlete.
