final thoughts...lynette


LYNETTE & PHILIP

 We want to take this time to thank all of you who came to celebrate Brent’s life with us at the service. It was so uplifting to hear how Brent had touched so many lives, and equally as comforting to know that you thought he was as wonderful as we did.

 

It is so very hard to put into words the love that we have for Brent.

 

He lovingly carried the torch as the Fletcher patriarch after Dad passed away. He was a dear brother/brother-in-law who teased a little and loved a lot. He made us laugh often. We went to him for advice on many things…purchasing our home, investments, and cars…we’re happy to say he approved of our cars. J

 

We have so many wonderful memories of Brent. One of our fondest is sharing family times together in our home. If it were a meal, Brent would take a nap shortly thereafter, and somehow, without our noticing until after he left, we’d find pictures on the wall upside down, trinkets moved from their spots to those of Brent’s choosing, and even candy wrappers strategically placed around the house. Sometimes it would take us days to find all of his little “adjustments” to our home.

 

He loved God, his family, and life to the fullest. We intend to follow his example by loving God, our families, and our lives to the fullest.

 

We love him dearly.
