Glenndon James Wonders, 47, of Burlington, died on Wednesday, November 19, 2025, in Burlington. Born June 28, 1978, in Burlington, &nbsp;he was the son of Timothy Wonders and Frances Johnston VandenBoom.&nbsp;

He was a graduate of Crusade High School in Morning Sun.&nbsp;

Glenndon worked in construction and most recently he was waste collector until he started experiencing health problems. &nbsp;

He loved fishing, if he wasn’t out on the water, you could bet he was glued to a video game, binge-watching movies, blasting music, or belting out a song. Glenndon was stubborn, a total smart aleck, and absolutely set in his ways, but he could make anyone laugh, which is probably why he always said he should have been a comedian. He was rarely seen without his friends and his brain was basically a walking trivia encyclopedia.

Survivors include his mother, Frances VandenBoom of Winfield; father, Timothy Wonders of Burlington; daughter, Camille Mariona Hayes; estranged son, Tanner Burchette; five siblings, Jennifer (Dan) of Tipton, Stefannie (Don) of Burlington, Alisha of OK, Brett (Meagan) of Winfield, and Patrick of Wapello; and several nieces, nephews, aunts, uncles and cousins.&nbsp;

He was preceded in death by his grandparents and sister, Stacy.

Cremation has been entrusted to the care of Prugh Crematory.

A celebration of life will be held at a later date.&nbsp;
