I can still see Brent dancing and smiling. He knew how to make everyone laugh and was taken too soon. I am praying for his family during his birthday and Mother's Day weekend. May he rest in peace in God's care.

I was sad to hear about Brent's death. I looked up to him b/c he just seemed to be so good at everything he did, and everyone seemed to be his friend. He definitely was a role model for me in grade school and high school.

Roever Family, I cannot believe that Brent is gone. I have always wish that all my former students live into old age, I guess it is not possible. I hate to see a young person pass on.
I know that Brent will be missed by many! I can still see his beautiful smile! I believe a Roever trait!
Now Brent sits at the banquet with our Lord and Father Ed!
Bless all of you!
Remembering all of you, elsa boysha.
