Darrell J. Van Brunt

Darrell J. Van Brunt, age 70 of Gilmanton, passed away at his home on Thursday, June 30, 2016. He was born on May 29, 1946 in Mondovi, the son of Ross and Ruth (Schultz) Van Brunt. Darrell graduated from Gilmanton High School in 1964. After graduation, he moved to Racine and later moved to St. Paul, MN to work at the Ford Motor Company. When Ross's health began to decline, Darrell moved back home to farm, where his heart truly was. Darrell had an unfortunate accident that left him having to recover a broken neck. He was unable to work on the farm and transitioned into Custom Combining. Darrell later began driving members of the Amish community. No matter how Darrell's health was or how much pain he was in, he always had the drive to keep going. In Darrell's free time, he enjoyed hunting and fishing. Darrell was unique and had a one of a kind personality. He was never afraid to tell you his opinion and had an infectious laugh. He loved his family and had a special devotion to his grandchildren. Darrell will be sadly missed by his daughters, Terri (Dean) Bollinger of Menomonie and Tammi (Mike) Stangret of Durand; son, Darren Van Brunt; grandchildren, Cheyann, Shauna and Lenny Bollinger, Sekora and Mason Stangret, and Mandi Van Brunt; mother, Ruth Van Brunt; sister, Carolyn (Gary) Kaiser of Elk Mound; nieces and nephews; other relatives and friends.
