  8. My heart goes out to this family for their loss. Anyone who had the pleasure of knowing Brent, friends, teachers, classmates, nurses and especially family realize he was truly a gift from God. This young man had the most kind, loving trusting heart. He never judged anyone, held grudges, blamed not one person for any of his trouble. Brent never knew hate. He never knew disappointment. All he knew was love. His mom, dad and all his family made sure of that. He had a very special bond with his sister,Angela.
    He had the biggest smile that made you have to smile too because it warmed your heart instantly. Knowing Brent should make us all learn to be better. This precious soul will be missed and will leave a void in all our lives. He will live in our hearts forever.
