Sunde, Milton "Milt" John Age 78, died April 22, 2020 in Bloomington, MN surrounded by family after a courageous battle with Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease. Milt was born February 1, 1942 in Minneapolis and is preceded in death by parents George and Marie Sunde and brother Gerald. He is survived by his loving wife of 54 years Barbara Sunde, his brother Edward, children Jennifer (Neil) Craigan, Katy Sunde, Molly (Andrew) Polding, Amy (Kase) Macosko, and eight grandchildren who adored him. Milt was a big guy with an even bigger heart; he was the one you wanted on your team. After serving as captain of the University of MN football team, highlighted by a 1962 Rose Bowl win, he joined the Minnesota Vikings (1964-75) appearing in two Super Bowls and one Pro Bowl. In 1974, he received the 'YMCA-Brian Piccolo Award' and the 'MN Ten Outstanding Young Men Award', both in recognition of humanitarian service and commitment to bettering one's community. Throughout his life, Milt was involved with many impactful organizations including Fellowship of Christian Athletes, Hope Presbyterian Church, IFI Prison Ministries, Walk for Mankind, Wheels for the World, Street Hoops and Roundball Classic Summer Camp (founder). As a man of great faith, he also initiated a lakeside Sunday worship service in Amery, WI, where his family has enjoyed a summer cabin for over 40 years. Professionally, Milt founded two successful sports-related companies and passionately coached several girls high school basketball teams. Milt was genuine, humble, hard working and loving. He had the ability to quickly connect with others and brighten any room with a joke and a smile. While we will no longer hear his jokes or see his smile, we know Heaven is brighter and stronger today! A private burial service will be held at Dawn Valley Cemetery in Bloomington, MN and a Celebration of Life service will be held at a later date, details to come. In lieu of flowers, Milt's family asks for donations to be made to Minnesota Fellowship of Christian Athletes, my.fca.org/…
