Brent (& Nicole) were very close friends. I spent a lot of time with Brent after Nicole's passing. He would come to see my daughter & I frequently. He was a good man, a great friend & there are so many stories I could tell! It was only a few weeks ago that he took me to his favorite Chanterelle mushroom picking spot. We didn't get but only a few but we had a good & therapeutic time traipsing through the forest, a place he loved to be. We sat for hours talking & reminiscing about times past. He spoke of his love for his best friend & girlfriend, Nicole, and how proud he was of his sons. Brent was proud of his new business & did very well from the start! He hated to be alone this past month and a half so he would bring me to their home & we would sit & talk into the wee hours. Brent would find his laugh at times, more of a sweet sorrow yet still good to hear. Brent was kind, giving & cared deeply for his friends & those he loved. We've been friends for 23 plus years! Roommates even. We've spent lots of time in the woods & he always sent pictures to me of him & Nicole & him & his son's. Most recently of his son's car accident asking me for prayers. I will miss him terribly! This is a loss I feel deeply! My sincerest condolences to his parents, brother Brian & to his cherished sons. May the Lord give you each peace & comfort. Hold onto your beautiful memories & speak of Brent often to keep him alive in your hearts. I will do the same.
