Norman "Peanut" LeBrun
On Saturday, November 28, Norman H. “Peanut” LeBrun, beloved husband and father peacefully passed away after his wife of almost 61, Rosemary (Rizzo) LeBrun and daughters said their goodbyes at the Pines in Rutland, Vt. Norman was born on April 19, 1932 to Eldoris and Myrtle (Keniston) LeBrun in Ludlow, Vt. He graduated from Black River High School in 1950. After graduating, he joined the Navy and later the Air Force. He spent time in the South Pacific as part of Operation Redwing on Eniwetok Atoll, for which he was later labeled an Atomic Veteran. He married Rosemary Rizzo on December 19, 1959. They had four daughters, Karen, Teri, Liz, and Barb. After his tour of duty in Vietnam, Norman retired from the Air Force in 1971 and moved his family to Mount Holly, Vermont. He worked for General Electric first in Ludlow then in Rutland, retiring in1992. In his retirement years, Norman and Rosemary frequently traveled to Atlantic City where they always tried to “hit the big one.” When they were not traveling, they could be seen at Black River High, rooting for the local sports teams, sipping coffee at the Cafe at Delight, or walking through the town of Ludlow. Norman is survived by his wife Rosemary, brother Louis, daughters Karen Main (Paul), Theresa, Elizabeth (Edward), and Barbara, as well as grandchildren, Steven, Danielle, Rachel, Tyler, and Kalinen, and great-grand children Lily, Autumn, Ezra, Lucey, and Molley, and his niece Roberta. He was predeceased by his parents, two brothers, Robert and Bernard. There are no calling hours. Burial and a celebration of Norman’s life will be in Spring 2021.
