Saturday, dozens of semis, tractors, and fire trucks lined the streets of Brainard and David City to celebrate the life of a nine-year-old boy who died earlier this week. Trucks, one of Kroy Vandenberg’s favorite things, came from the Brainard area and beyond, which lined the streets for the funeral. “If it was loud and it moved he was in it or running towards it,” said Vandenberg family friend, Justin Vanderslice. Family friend Tyler Dickinson said Kroy had dreams of farming and firefighting, just like his dad, Brad.
