He married the love of his life, Lenna Christiansen on April 6, 1974 in Mayfield, Utah.  They have two wonderful sons, Robert and Bill, who brought two wonderful daughters to the family. They have three beautiful grandchildren whom he absolutely adored.

He loved to play the guitar. In his spare time he had it in his hands. He loved to share his talent and teach his kids and grandkids how to play.

Brent worked for 40 years in the tire industry servicing all of southern Utah. He made friends everywhere he went.  In 2005 Brent started his own successful insurance business which he said his sweet wife kept the business going. They made a great team.
