Susan, Keith, Jenny and Sister:
I don't have the words to express our feelings over Brent losing this battle with the brain tumor. I'm still in shock and disbelief that I'll never get to call my cousin again. He was always there for me. I loved him very much. I just have to believe that we will be reunited in Heaven.

May the Holy Spirit comfort you all and give you peace during this most difficult time

Susan, Keith & Jennifer, Sister and all the family. It is very difficult to find the right words to tell you how sorry I am to hear of Brent's passing. I know you all are going through a tough time now. We all know he is in a better place, with his family who have gone before him, but it doesn't make it any easier. I have many fond memories of Brent growing up in our early years in Marksville, but I remember him most for the time he had my Mom accompany Aunt Helena to Denver and to Las Vegas. It was a trip she never forgot and I am so sorry I never thanked him enough for that trip. He will be missed. God Bless you all.
