It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Darryl Stanyer, who left us on August 4, 2024 at the age of 64. Darryl was born on September 24, 1959 in Lacombe, Alberta to Ken and Irene Stanyer. He was the youngest of three children, with one brother Marv and one sister Linda.

Raised in Clive, Alberta Darryl attended local schools before completing his high school education in Lacombe. His passion for mechanics led him to further his education in the field, which set the stage for a fulfilling career. Darryl dedicated 27 years to Lacombe Fertilizer, where he not only delivered fertilizer but also maintained their trucks and equipment. His skills extended beyond this role as he also engaged in auto body work, painting numerous vehicles and equipment.

Darryl's love for life was evident in his cherished time spent with family. He found joy in various outdoor activities such as camping, fishing, and hunting. Whether it was a game of horseshoes, bocce, bunnock, crib, or other card games, Darryl embraced these moments with enthusiasm and a warm spirit.
