He was born October 31, 1950 in Minneapolis to Arthur and Joyce (Hambrick) Berendt. He graduated from Burnsville High School and went on to enlist in the U.S. Army. He served until his honorable discharge in 1975. In 1980, he married Michelle Dimmerman.

After years in Arizona, Michelle and Cary returned to Minnesota and made their home in Red Wing in 2010.
Cary loved fishing. When he wasn’t out on the water, he enjoyed trying to take the high score in games of Spades and Backgammon online. He loved to win. Cary was very smart and had a great sense of humor. He liked spending time with his family and he especially enjoyed being a grandfather.
