Brent Williams

OCTOBER 13, 1947 – JULY 15, 2026

DONALD “BRENT” WILLIAMS, 78, PASSED AWAY PEACEFULLY AT HIS HOME ON JULY 15, 2026, SURROUNDED BY HIS LOVING FAMILY.

BORN ON OCTOBER 13, 1947, BRENT WAS BORN AND RAISED IN SPARKS, NEVADA. HE GRADUATED FROM SPARKS HIGH SCHOOL IN 1965 BEFORE PROUDLY SERVING HIS COUNTRY IN THE UNITED STATES NAVY.

BRENT BEGAN HIS CAREER IN THE BANKING INDUSTRY IN 1967, DEDICATING MORE THAN FOUR DECADES TO SERVING HIS COMMUNITY. HE RETIRED FROM COLONIAL BANK IN 2010. DURING HIS CAREER, HE ALSO FULFILLED HIS DREAM OF BUSINESS OWNERSHIP, OPERATING PORT OF SUBS FROM 1985 TO 2000.

BRENT EMBRACED LIFE WITH ENTHUSIASM AND FOUND JOY IN THE PEOPLE AND ACTIVITIES HE LOVED MOST. WHETHER HE WAS PLAYING SOFTBALL, CHEERING ON HIS BELOVED SAN FRANCISCO 49ERS, WATER SKIING ON HIS BOAT, HITTING THE SLOPES TO SNOW SKI, TRAVELING WITH FAMILY, BOWLING, OR SUPPORTING BOTH UNR AND UNLV ATHLETICS, HE LIVED EACH DAY WITH ENERGY AND PASSION. HIS GREATEST HAPPINESS, HOWEVER, CAME FROM THE TIME HE SPENT WITH THOSE HE LOVED.

BRENT IS SURVIVED BY HIS DEVOTED WIFE OF 45 YEARS, DONNA WILLIAMS; HIS DAUGHTER, LINDSEY, AND HER HUSBAND, MICHAEL; HIS CHERISHED GRANDCHILDREN, JAMESON, SAWYER, SADIE, AND SUNNY; HIS SON, DARREL WILLIAMS; HIS SISTER, DI ANN, AND HER HUSBAND, LARRY DAVIS; AS WELL AS MANY BELOVED NIECES, NEPHEWS, EXTENDED FAMILY MEMBERS, AND DEAR FRIENDS.

HE WAS PRECEDED IN DEATH BY HIS PARENTS, DONALD AND BESSIE WILLIAMS, AND HIS BROTHER, GARY WILLIAMS.

BRENT WILL BE REMEMBERED FOR HIS UNWAVERING LOVE FOR HIS FAMILY, HIS DEDICATION TO HIS COUNTRY AND CAREER, HIS GENEROUS SPIRIT, AND THE COUNTLESS MEMORIES HE CREATED WITH THOSE FORTUNATE ENOUGH TO KNOW HIM. HIS LEGACY OF KINDNESS, HARD WORK, AND LOVE WILL LIVE ON IN THE HEARTS OF ALL WHO KNEW HIM.
