My prayers are with your family Brent. Growing up we were not close but I do remember your funny personality and how you always grabbed the attention of a room. I knew your wife Summer and your cousin Jamie I will pray that God gives them peace and they know you are in a better place. Your little girls will always be in my thoughts and prayers. They lost you too soon. I hope they carry with them your love for them throughout their own life and you shine your confidence through them.

Brent you were one of my best buds growing up. You were a great ball player and even better person. Some of my best childhood memories include you and when we stayed the night at each others house after ball games. RIP my friend. You will truly be missed by many.
