I was fortunate to get to know Brent after having his son, Randy, in my PSR class nearly 15 years ago. Brent was a true example for us all as a husband and father, and in offering his suffering to Christ. My and my family’s prayers are with Randy, Teresa, your family, and for Brent.

I had the pleasure to work for and to get to know Brent while driving part-time on his advertising truck a few years back during that time we became friends and not just in the business sense either. He was a man of great Ideals and integrity a joy to be around, his spirit was full of love and faith that showed through when you were around him. Farewell my friend God speed and to your family my prayers and blessings are with you may God give you all peace during your loss
