Darcy Boyd “Scooby” Ives

Ives – Darcy Boyd “Scooby”, age 58, of Liverpool, passed away on Tuesday, December 1st, 2020 in Queens General Hospital, Liverpool.

Born in Sandy Point, N.S., Darcy was a son of the late John and Bessie “Betty” (Ellingwood) Ives.

Darcy was a jack of all trades and a master of many. If there was something he couldn’t fix he would just figure it out. He had many jobs over the years but worked mainly as a handyman. Darcy loved animals, his Rock and Roll music and collecting Coca Cola swag. Darcy was a very laid back, easy going man who would do anything to help a friend or a person in need. Above all else, he was most passionate about spending time with his family and many friends.

He is survived by his loving companion, Kim Whynot; daughters, Abigail Ives (Shane Stevens) of Berwick, Holly (Jonathon) Huskins of Truro, Natalie Ives (Kirk Hynick) of Port Mouton, Kerri Wilson of Liverpool; son, MacKenzie (Vicky Wentzell) of Liverpool; grandchildren, Ethan, Ashley, Dillon, Tyler, Maggie, Isaiah and Eli; sisters, Susan (James) Hunt of Mersey Point, Donna Murray (Allen) of Miramichi, New Brunswick; brothers, Charles (Marsha) of Waasis, New Brunswick, Patrick (Karen) of Liverpool; best friends Ronny Levy and Wayne Oickle.

He was predeceased by a sister in infancy, Sally Marie; brothers, John and Terry.
