LIKE A ROSE THAT HAS ITS DEW...INSIDE I CARRY A PART OF YOU!
MY CHILD On the day God took you I thought that I would die I wondered where the time went? I asked alot of whys?? With people all around me I felt alone inside From all their words of comfort, I couldn't seem to hide, I thought I might be dreaming That I'd wake and find you here, I thought "This can't be happening." As I wiped another tear. On the day that you were laid to rest My heart broke yet again, I wondered if the pain would end, Bust mostly, I wondered when?? It's hard to be without you, At times the days seem long, Sometimes I just sit crying, When there's really nothing wrong. I wish we'd had more time, Before your life was done. I hope your resting peacefully, My precious one ,My Son! "AUTHOR UNKNOWN"

Brent was such a giving and caring person that he would give anyone anything he had. He always wanted to help someone, even if he had to go without to help them. The only thing he wanted in return was love and friendship. True friends were something Brent didn't have many of. He always talked about how lonely he was. He wanted a woman to be committed to him and love him, and so many times he would pick the wrong ones, just not to be alone. The only time he was truly in love was with the mother of his only child, whom he met in 1997. She loved him as much as he did her. The four years they spent together was the only time of his life that I feel he was truly happy. She and their daughter Alexis was his world. Sadly enough, the devil himself broke up that family. Even at his death, he gave life to 5 people by donating his organs. His heart is beating at this very minute in someone else's body in Wisconsin. So in some respect, Brent lives on. I hope the person who received his heart knows that not only did Brent give them life, but was blessed with the most giving, loving, sweetest heart in the world.
Brents Life Brent was a very proud father of his daughter whom is 6 years old, her name is Lexi. She meant the world to Brent. He wore his Proud to be a daddy shirt the last night we went out. He was always loved uncoditionally by his mother Diane who he counted on more than anything. Brent had alot of friends online, and you all meant so much to him. Brent loved to make everyone laugh, smile, and cry at times. He was one of a kind. People like Brent come along once in a lifetime, I am just thankful to of had the joy to of been your best friend and your partner. Shine on us all Brent, your memory will last forever and that is something that will never die. I love you baby!!!
In Loving Memory of My Precious son and Devoted Father of his daughter Alexis Jade Thomas(You will live in our hearts until we see you again when Jesus calls us home)We love you more than we can express in words...I just hope you knew that.
