Boone and Susie were married for 20 wonderful years. Boone worked as a carpenter and took great pride in operating and working on his dump truck, which always kept him busy. He was a proud supporter of the New Melle VFW and enjoyed the simple pleasures in life, including a cold beer, a whiskey drink, good food, great music, and wonderful friends. He also enjoyed deer hunting.
Boone was a true gentle giant with an old-school spirit and a heart of gold. He was the kind of man who would do anything for anyone in need, never hesitating to lend a helping hand. Extremely handy and talented, Boone could fix just about anything and was always willing to help. Above all, he loved his family deeply and cherished his animals. Boone will be dearly missed by all who knew and loved him.
Services will be held at a later date. Memorials can be made in honor of Daniel to Pitman Funeral Home to help with funeral expenses. The Brinkmann family is being served by Pitman Funeral Home in Wentzville.
