It is with heavy hearts we announce the sudden passing of Dennis James Tyson on February 4, 2021 at the age of 73 years.
Dennis was born in Saskatoon on August 22, 1947 and grew up on the family farm at Hillview (area of Harris) where Dennis remained and farmed for 40 years. He loved photography, hunting, fishing and reading. Dennis will be missed by many and remembered for his kindness, compassion, honesty, integrity and his fun-loving jokester ways.
Dennis leaves his wife Vicky, son John (Nicole) and granddaughters Desiree and Raylin, son Brian and granddaughter Jayden, brother Doug (Kathy), niece Michelle (Cory) their children Dakota and Matthew, nephew Terry (Dana) and their children Dylan and Aleyna, step-daughter Juanita (Mike) Froese and boys as well as numerous aunts, uncles and many, many cousins.
Special thanks to Jim Cockburn for taking Dennis on his last flight hunting and fishing. As requested by Dennis, there will be no service or ground marker, those wishing can plant a tree in his memory. To send online condolences please visit shanidarfuneralservices.com.

The measure of a man, Not - How did he die? But - How did he live? Not - What did he gain? But - What did he give? These are the things that measure the worth, of a man as a man, regardless of birth.
