Brent Joseph Gonzalez

Brent grew up in Sacramento, CA where he attended college at Santa Clara University. Always a charismatic personality, he developed a large group of friends that he is connected with, to this day. He made a move to Los Angeles and made it his home for the past 20 years. Making friends wherever he went, it was not long before he had amassed his LA family. Ask anyone who knows Brent and they would describe him as gregarious, funny, kind, thoughtful, positive, full of faith and completely unselfish. Every single person will be able to tell you a story about something that Brent did or said that made them feel special. He remembered every birthday or milestone in your life, if he saw something on social media, he was the first to send you a text and comment about it. He always greeted everyone with that million-dollar smile that lit up every room. Truly the most beautiful soul you could ever be so fortunate to have met.

Brent was a loving husband, son, brother, nephew, fierce friend and most of all a devoted father. He is survived by his wife Jaime and their three beautiful children (Hannah 5, Hailey 2, and Hudson 2). He is also survived by his loving family, extended family and hundreds of friends whose hearts he touched throughout his life. His memory will live on in them and they will all carry his legacy on to his children so that they may always be comforted by the warmth of the light he brought to this world."
