Brent, we never met but Tod told me what a wonderful brother you were.  We know have another Angel looking over us.

Brent, going to miss you.  You had a great sense of humor, awesome brain, and a demeanor that always said "stay calm, be cool."  
Very glad I was able to have a few BBQ's with you the last couple of years.  I hoist a pork rib in one hand, and a top sirloin in the other (cooked rare, just the way you like) and salute you.
Prayers to your family.  Later, dude.

::What End - for Brent::

What long, cold winter night 
has passed you from this life?
Will it prove in darker years to come
its empty  nature, 
or illustrate the blade that cut you down?

Now you have gone
like nearly silent snowfall hissing
through the deadened trees-
And yet, the endless empty grin of you 
still lingers, and frozen memories 
of shared revelries, of days gone by,
of laughing games of make-believe,
of questions asked and given answers,
and wise but childlike eyes.

And so, like the winter and the spring,
and like this night - like everything -
You have passed and silent gone
while this world remains, still going on.

::composed for Brent, 2012::

You were my best friend.  We grew up together, protected our sisters and brothers, and strived to be the best we could be. I miss you so much but I know we will see each other again.  I still have work to do here on earth and your work now is in heaven.  Please work hard up there so I can relax when I get there.  I love you bro and I will never forget you.

Brent was one of the dearest, most sincere and honest people I've ever known.  I am proud to have been his friend.  He once told me I was his mentor, but it was quite the opposite. Brent kept me centered and could always remind me how laughter and smiles kept us focused. May God bless Brent's family in this time of sorrow, my prayers are with you all. Rest in Peace my dear friend. I will miss you dearly.

Always going to miss you and think of you buddy.

I hope that you find comfort in knowing that God takes care of all his children.
Brent, Save us a place at the table!!

So sorry for Brent's passing.  May God Bless you and provide you comfort and peace.

My life is a better place because I had the distinct honor of having you be a part of it. Since we were kids, there have been countless laughs, tears, serious moments and songs we shared. Watching you sing 'Rebel Yell' was always awesome! You always made sure you had time for me, regardless how busy you were. The time we shared during your last 2 weeks here will always mean so much to me, just as you've always meant the world to me. I'm proud to have called you my big brother. I love you, Brent-o.

Brent,

Thank you for welcoming me into your wonderful family. There was a gentle easiness about you that made me see your southern charm right from the get-go. You were a great conversationalist and an all-around cool guy. I'm very sad that you left this world all too soon, but I am very grateful that you're no longer in pain. This RI girl is going to miss you.

Love Always, Your Friend and Sister-in-Law, Kerry
