Brent spent the majority of his youth at the ballpark as he had a love for the game of baseball and enjoyed sharing the game with his father and brothers.  As Brent grew older he developed that same passion for the game of golf.  Most of his free time was spent on the golf course.  Always a man who liked to be kept busy later in life he became an avid pickleball player.  Of course most of his love of sports was just being able to hang out with his friends.
