Dennis Alan Brunnert, son of Sylvester Francis Brunnert and Mary Theresa (Wakefield) Brunnert, was born August 7, 1950 in St. Louis, Missouri.

On February 15, 2003, Dennis was united in marriage to Patricia Ann Hinkle in Waynesville, Missouri. They shared over 16 years together and many wonderful memories. Dennis was a hardworking man and took great pride in providing for his family. For the majority of his working years, Dennis worked for Meek’s Lumber as a driver, where he received many safe driving awards. In his spare time, Dennis was an avid St. Louis Cardinals baseball fan and loved going to the games. He also enjoyed being outdoors while hunting and fishing and would go every chance he could. Dennis was a life member of the National Rifle Association, North American Hunting Club and the Bow and Barrel Sportsmen Center of St. Robert. Most importantly, he loved spending time with his grandchildren the most and his family and friends. Dennis passed away Tuesday, December 17, 2019 in the Cox Medical South of Springfield, Missouri having attained the age of 69 years.
