I would like to say how sorry I am to hear of your loss Sheldon. I know there are no words that can be expressed to you at this time. Your Dad was such a great man and i know what a good friend he also was to you. He is up above now throwing some horse shoes around i am sure. My thoughts and prayers are with you and the family…
We are sorry for the loss of a friend and past coworker , he will be deeply missed. Brent had a great sense of humor and shared it with all.
Chuck, Steve, Kevin and extended family of Brent,

My sincere sympathies go out to Chuck, Steve, Kevin and all of Brents family. You are all in my thoughts and will continue to be in my thoughts and prayers.
We will miss Brent’s hugs, smiles, fun nature, and quirky sense of humor. I remember Marilynn had two baby picutres of Brent. One was the scrawny serious neglected baby Chuck and Marilynn brought home as a foster child and the second was a rosy cheeked smiling baby reborn in just a few months by the nurturing of two loving parents and great big brothers. I like that it says Brent was born to them because he was born in love there. We all miss his mom Marilynn who I believe has Brent in her loving arms in heaven.
I’m so sorry for your loss Sheldon, Brooks, Chuck, Janet, Steve, Kevin and families.
All my love, Aunt Jewel
