I first met Brent when he worked on special projects for us at Sprint PCS in 1997. He was an adventurous spirit who managed to inspire happiness in others and still be committed to work and family. It has been awhile since I have seen him but I will always remember his big smile and an even bigger heart. My heartfelt sympathies go out to his family and everyone he touched along the way.

I went to High School with Brent and also worked with Brent at Bellamere Country Market. Brent you were always a sincere, funny person who I enjoyed being friends with. My deepest sympathy goes out to his family and dear friends. My thoughts are with you.

I met Brent and subsequently his wife, Kay, when they lived at Pinecrest apartments in Fort Lauderdale. Although it has been a while since I last saw Brent, he made such an impression on me because of his humor, his energy and his intensity of spirit. He was a person you always wanted to be around.



My prayers and deepest sympathy go out to Kay and to all of his family and friends.

I met Brent in 1999 at Pinecrest, in Fort Lauderdale. I was there when he met his wife (to be at the time) Kay at my friends house party, it was a great night. What a wonderful guy I always said! You were full of love, and had a very deep special soul. Though I hadn't seen you in a few years, I always thought of you Brent. You were an amazing person, I will always have a special place in my heart for you.



I love you.

You and your family have been and shall continue to, be included in my prayers. I recall the day I stopped by Ryan's. There you both were, covered in cement, for you were helping Ryan with the pool decking. Your laughter echoed that day as you both worked side by side. Especially after he cemented himself in one corner and you in the other. It is a memory that I shall keep. And I shall smile when I think of it.
