Brent was an angel on earth in my opinon, I rodeo'd with Brent for 3 years, He affectionally called me his sister and friend, I am honored to hold those titles in his eyes and heart. No matter who told me I was crazy for riding because I was a woman Brent was always there backing me up tellin me to do what I loved, and when I hit the dirt or the bull turned back he was always the 1st one to me, numerous times he beat the bullfighters...
I love you Superman, You will be missed greatly and NEVER forgotten.
Love Ya,
Tracy ~Trey~

To the Bryson family,
I will never forget Brent. He was such a great person, and an even better role model. In any hard situation ever came up he would be the first to give you the shirt off of his back. He taught me to always look at the brighter side of life and enjoy it for what it is worth. Just always remember, Brent is now enjoying the best rodeo ride of his life in the presence of the Lord.
Brent, I love ya man, and I will never forget the times sitting on the front porch seeing that "big white" truck rolling up Maney Branch with you hollering into the PA system. I miss ya buddy!

To my former and fellow football coach, Wayne Bryson. Brent and I were very close from 7th grade on.I was picked on on the football field as a new kid and brent was the ONLY person there to back me up and tell me to keep on keepin on.
Im sorry I didn't get to speak with you guys at the service. Things got pretty hectic for me at the end. But To a #50 to a #67 to the whole Black Hawks Football Team, were all family.And Brent will always and forever will be in our hearts.

The Broken Chain
We little knew that morning that God was going to call your name,
In life we loved you dearly; in death we do the same.
It broke our hearts to lose you, you did not go alone.
For part of us went with you, the day God called you home.
You left us peaceful memories, your love is still our guide,
And though we cannot see you, you are always at our side.
Our family chain is broken, and nothing seems the same,
But as God calls us one by one, the chain will link again.

We loved Brent as one of our own, we met at the Rodeo. He loved to ride and to see his face on those bulls was simply wonderful. He came to our home and stayed. He will never be forgotten. Your family is in our prayers and thoughts. God has a new angel with him.
