To the Lilly Family:
It's been many years since we've seen one another, but I wanted to take a couple moments to let you know how sorry I am to learn of your loss. Jason & David, I still think of you all as little fellas running n jumping, fooling around, riding bikes and playing with construction trucks in the living room as we spent the evenings together when your Mom n Dad got away for a night out. We had fun those nights, didn't we? I remember poor "little" Brent never wanted to go to bed though, afraid he would miss out on the fun, I guess. He'd sneak out of bed after his big brothers were asleep, cuddle up and watch a baseball game with me or whatever happened to be on. Thanks to you guys, I was "ready" for my boys, once they came along lol. I'm sure you all have many happy memories of times spent with Brent, from crazy antics growing up & later special times with his own family. I'm sure he has been a terrific dad. I hope you boys are local so you can share fun memories of their dad with his kids & continue to make new memories for his them. Help them keep their daddy close in their hearts, he will walk with them forever and keep watch over them. Tina, Nancy & Clyde, I'm very sorry for your loss. May the love of your family and friends bring you comfort and strength as you all grieve your loss.
Sincerely,
Suzie Michalek-Huntley

My condolences to the family and friends of Brent.
I will miss him as a friend and coworker.
I have spent many good years working with Brent on some intense projects. Brent always went above and beyond and met any challenge that he was presented with. I know that Brent had the same approach with his family due to how he would speak of Tina, the kids and his parents.
I am truly sorry for your loss, i know that we will all miss him dearly.
