Derryl Glyn

Brunet

Derryl Glyn Brunet passed away on November 7, 2026, at Eunice Manor. He was born on January 14, 1948, in Mamou.

Derryl will be remembered as a quiet man with a strong work ethic and a generous spirit. A hard worker throughout his life, he built a career as an accountant and bookkeeper at many facilities and retired from Ville Platte Trade School. He also served the Town of Mamou as Treasurer in years past. In both his work and daily life, he was known as someone who would help anyone he could.

He was a faithful Catholic and a parishioner of St. Ann’s Catholic Church, where his faith was an important part of his life. He also enjoyed the simple pleasure of going to drink coffee at the Krazy Cajun Cafe in Mamou or spending time at Deshotel Brothers engine place, a familiar routine that reflected his steady and humble nature. He was also very involved in politics and always stayed up to date with current events. 

Derryl is survived by his son, Jonathon Brunet and wife Shamille; his sister, Deborah Leonards and husband Don; and his beloved grandchildren, Alyse Brunet and Noah Brunet. He leaves behind family who will remember him with love and gratitude, holding close the example of his kindness, faith, and willingness to lend a hand.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Joffery and Rena Brunet, and by his brother, Sonny James Brunet
