Brent Naylor Obituary

Brent Lee Naylor

1940 ~ 2025

Brent Lee Naylor born October 11th, 1940, in Salt Lake City Utah, left this earth on October 8th, 2025. He passed peacefully from his home through the heavens above to be joined together again with the love of his life, Gayle Mary Parks Naylor, his beautiful wife of 56 years. He was the pinnacle of strength to his two sons and their wives, Rick, Lisa, Darren and Tammie. He was the fun-loving "Grandpa Brent" of Natalie, Michelle, Ashlie, Corbin, Duncan, Nick and Mitchell as well as a special "Pappy" to his great grandchildren Ricki Lynn, Cowan, Oren, Markus and Ronald plus a friend to his furry companion, Luna. His love for the outdoors was apparent with his adventurous country lifestyle spanning from camping and off-road riding through the mountains to observing wild horses out on the deserts of Utah. We are grateful for the precious memories we have shared over his lifetime and hold them in our hearts forever and always. As we remember the good times together in a celebration of his life, services will be held with a quiet intimate family gathering.
