Darcy Scott Wiens
August 17, 1989 – December 21, 2025
Darcy Scott Wiens took his first breath on Discovery Day, August 17, 1989 in Whitehorse General Hospital. He was the third of four children born to Maynard and Sharon Wiens who were missionaries with Northern Canada Evangelical Mission in Carmacks, Yukon. It was there that he developed his love for the north and its great outdoors.
When he was eight years old and just beginning grade three, the family moved back to Dalmeny. Darcy excelled in school. He graduated from Dalmeny High School in June of 2007.
He entered university in the fall of 2007 and graduated from the U of S in 2011 with a Bachelor of Arts Degree with great distinction majoring in Northern Studies. He chose to continue his academic education by acquiring a second degree. He convocated from the U of S in June 2013 with a Bachelor of Education Degree with great distinction majoring in high school sciences.
Academic excellence was not his only pursuit. As a child, he was a member of the Carmacks swim team, the Saskatoon Lasers Swim Club, and the Straight Shooters Archery Club.
He was a gifted artist. His medium of choice was the common pencil and paper. He also practiced taxidermy.
His hobbies were unique. He created medieval shields from wood and leather, and knives from old saw blades – he was a perfectionist!
Darcy loved to fish in the summer and hunt in the fall. He had perfect school attendance until September 2006 when his dad took him on a, once in a lifetime, river hunt for moose. His lifelong friends from McCabe Creek, Yukon, guided him where he bagged a trophy moose.
He worked at J & H Builder’s Warehouse in Saskatoon throughout university and until December 2021. He had just celebrated his fourth anniversary of work at Viacore.
He loved his family unconditionally and sacrificially with deep devotion, fierce loyalty, and “stiff” hugs. He possessed a quiet but genuine faith. He held high ideals and God honoring morals. He was a man of integrity. He was full of quick witted responses and dry “dad” jokes. He was his dad’s right hand man, whether snow shovelling, grass cutting, building projects, fishing, or hunting.
The last thing I said to my son as he left our home after supper on December 20th was, “Good night son, see you later.”
Darcy breathed his last earthly breath on the evening of December 21, 2025 at his residence in Dalmeny.

My deepest sympathies to the Wiens family. I had the great honour of teaching Darcy Art. He was a lovely person and tremendous artist. I remember him telling me stories of living up North. RIP Darcy
I had the privilege of working alongside Darcy and sharing many conversations about blacksmithing, handmade tools, and hunting stories. He spoke with such quiet passion, deep knowledge, and genuine humility—you could always tell these weren’t just hobbies to him, but reflections of who he was: patient, skilled, and deeply respectful of tradition and the outdoors.
Darcy was steady, kind, and thoughtful in the workplace, with a dry sense of humor that often caught you by surprise. He will be truly missed by all of us who worked with him.
My sincere condolences to the Wiens family. May you find comfort in the many lives Darcy touched and the memories he left behind.
Wishing the Wiens family…….. peace to bring you comfort, courage to face the days ahead and wonderful memories to hold in your heart.
