Everyone

I was asked to post this by Brent’s family.

I am devastated to have to share the news that Brent has passed away

On Monday October 2 he left us to go tell the man upstairs how to fix this world.

I will miss him so very much. Heartbroken is an understatement.

Keep Elizabeth his wife in your prayers.

RIP and Godspeed buddy………

Brent was one of the good guys. This hit me very hard this morning. The world is not as good of a place as it was when he walked it.

May his memory be a blessing for all that knew him on this earthly plane.

My late father in law used to say "nobody has made it through yet". My prayers and thoughts go out to the family and friends for their loss. Brent will be missed by many many people

Damnit. At this age I should be used to losing folks that I know and like but I’m not and Brent’s passing hurts. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

Sad to hear this and thoughts and prayers are with his family. Master of his craft and I was always impressed with how he dove into his projects with such attention to detail.

Stunned, saddened, a little angry even, but most of all reflective of the man I got to know in small way. He had such enthusiasm and curiosity for the world around him, both natural and mechanical. The only guy I ever knew who had an entire room devoted to amphibians! His love of wildlife was well documented throughout his entertaining restoration thread. Just as clear was his love of 914s and his clever, innovative methods to bring even the smallest component back to usefulness. Too bad he never got to build that garage, it was amazing the work he did in limited space. I will miss his contributions and celebrate his example.

Rest in peace my friend.

This is tough to hear. He was so helpful to me and an inspiration to everyone about how to chase this dream we share . He and I traded private messages many times both in the forum and emails. He was a real gentleman and I respected him deeply He he lived heroically and I’m grateful for his friendship.
