Private family gravesite services will be May 9, with burial in Crawford Heights Memory Gardens Cemetery, Denison, Iowa. DeLaine Edward Blunk was born May 4, 1931, in Crawford County, the son of Edward and Edna (Carlson) Blunk. He graduated from Charter Oak High School in 1949. He proudly served in the U.S. Army from 1953 to 1955, serving in Germany in the Motor Pool Department as a mechanic and heavy equipment operator. After his discharge from service, he became employed with Hoak Motors in Sioux City, Iowa and Novak Cadillac in Omaha, Nebraska. He was also involved in the construction of a cross-country electrical power line called the Adirondak High Line. He married Leoda Margaret Reis on April 3, 1957, in Redwood Falls, Minnesota. Together they farmed near Charter Oak and raised their three children, Connie, Vicki and Shari, until they moved to Denison. He then became employed at the Ted Cornelius service station in Denison, driving a tank wagon and bought the service station in 1976 and added a towing service which he named, Happy Hooker. He devoted his time and effort to his family, friends and the community. He had a good sense of humor and enjoyed playing cards, coffee with friends, fishing, hunting and going to the casino. He enjoyed watching westerns on TV and was an avid viewer of the Wheel of Fortune. He had great mechanical abilities and was able to fix anything to include his first tow truck that he built and welded together. Above all, he loved the time he spent with his family. Surviving are three daughters, Connie (Gary) Wiegel of Charter Oak, Vicki (William) Lyman of Denison and Shari (Bradley) Brown of Portland, TX; four grandchildren; one sister, Joyce (Robert) Petersen; one sister-in-law, Marcella; three brothers-in-law, Vernon (Darlene) Reis, Gale (Carol) Reis and Leonard Reis, all of Denison; and several nieces and nephews.
