Brandin Lee VanTine, a beacon of happiness and laughter, left this world unexpectedly on May 30, 2025, at the tender age of 25. Born on August 6, 1999, in Burlington, Vermont, Brandin blossomed into a joyous spirit whose bright smile could illuminate the darkest days. He was a vibrant, happy-go-lucky soul who embraced life with open arms, effortlessly making those around him break into smiles and laughter.
A passionate outdoorsman, Brandin delighted in the tranquility of nature, relishing weekends spent camping under starry skies and casting lines into serene waters while fishing. His heart thrived in the freedom of the great outdoors, where adventure awaited at every turn. A true seeker of thrills, he mastered the art of parkour and skateboarding, his energy and enthusiasm boundless as he frequently took to the streets with a skateboard underfoot.
Brandin was more than just his loves; he was a devoted family member and a steadfast friend. His unwavering support for his loved ones showcased the depth of his caring nature; he fought valiantly against life’s struggles, showing strength and determination that inspired many. Through every challenge, he remained anchored in love for his family and friends, nurturing bonds that will forever echo long after his departure.
He is survived by his loving parents, Victoria Peet and Scott VanTine. His memory continues to live on through his siblings, Malinda VanTine, Natalie VanTine, James VanTine, Cain VanTine, Quentin VanTine, Leah Peet, and Aubrey Peet, as well as several aunts, uncles, cousins, and two cherished nephews. His grandfather, Eugene VanTine, also grieves the loss of his beloved grandson.
Brandin Lee VanTine was a spark of joy, taken too soon, yet leaving behind a legacy of love and laughter. As we remember him, let us carry forward his infectious spirit, his passion for life, and the warmth he brought into our lives. He will forever remain in our hearts, a reminder to cherish each moment and to always find joy in the journey.
