Darcy was a bright light. He was an old soul who could always make you smile or laugh out loud. He was an avid outdoorsman, who loved to hunt, fish, and loved to share these moments with friends and family. He worked for the Town of Forestburg for the past 10 years and really enjoyed getting to give his time to the community he has lived in his whole life. He also worked 20 years in scaffolding and many friendships were formed on numerous job sites. He enjoyed baking, taking care of animals, checking out auctions, and sharing a coffee with friends. He will be missed, and remembered dearly by those who got to spend time with him.
