Brent, who also went by "Bub" from his loving sisters and relatives, had a great sense of humor; he could put a smile on anyone's face and he could make a whole room set off with laughter.

Brent loved his children and grandchildren and looked forward to them visiting him at Morgan City Health Care. On the days where Brent was feeling at his worst, his grandchildren, who were his heartbeat, kept him going and gave him hope to look forward too.
