Anthony VanNett, age 35, of White Earth, MN, died unexpectedly on Wednesday, May 19, 2021.

Anthony Joseph VanNett, known by many as Tone or 2 Tone, was born June 11, 1985 in Minneapolis, MN, the son of Ashley and Donovan Bellanger.  Growing up, his younger years were split between the Cities and White Earth. During high school, Tone was athletic and enjoyed playing both basketball and football for Ogilvie and Waubun. Following graduation from Waubun High School he attended United Tribes Technical College in Bismarck, ND.  He welcomed a son, Avery, before moving to Minneapolis and enrolling in Globe University of Business for production management.  Tone then moved to Colorado where he lived with family and worked construction.  He had moved back to White Earth to make his home and recently received his LLC to start VanNett Construction Company, with guidance from Aaron Keezer (Uncle Bruise).

Tone enjoyed spending time with family and friends. He especially loved his son Avery. Tone was always willing to go out of his way to assist others if they needed it and always there for his family and friends.  One of Tone's greatest accomplishments was his production company "Steady Grind" where he promoted up and coming artists. Together with Notty North they produced Yun N8VZ. Although gone too soon, he will always be loved and missed by those who knew him.
