As a child, Brent loved spending time swimming in his family's pool, and enjoyed the sunshine at the beach. Brent played the drums, piano, and glockenspiel in grade school and took his musical interest into his adulthood, with his love for music and specifically Elton John. Brent and Joey met in 2007, and went on to spend 16 wonderful years together. They spent their time camping and working outside on their gardens and in their community. Brent would selflessly help his neighbors with their household needs. He will be remembered for his kindness and selfless heart. Brent will be dearly missed by his family members and friends.
