He moved to Belford when he was a year old. Brent was raised in Belford and was a true Belford boy. By the time he was 10 years old, he was heading to Port Monmouth beach by himself to spend the day swimming and fishing. He loved the water. Even his family vacations to Thousand Islands in New York were spent at the beach. Brent graduated Middletown High School North in 2005. Brent loved working and keeping busy. He was a Jack of all Trades. He had many jobs over the years, from working on cars, to construction, to his most recent job in the maintenance department at Beacon Hill Country Club. Brent also had a special place in his heart for animals. He loved animals of all kinds. But, his true love was his children. Chances are if you ran into Brent, he would go on and on, proudly boasting about his kids.
