Teresa and Family,
I was so sorry to hear of you losing Brent. I have such fond memories of him during out RB days. He will always be the RB BBQ King. I lost my father to bladder cancer a little over 2 years ago, so I know how it feels. We will keep you in our thoughts and prayers. The best to you and your family.
Love, Deb
We will remember Brent for his friendly wave as we drove by. His willingness to help and be involved. His yearly arsenal of fireworks that would bring you out of bed and then bring you to tears by its beauty. His endless pitcrew involvement drove you to volunteer. We will miss you neighbor.David, Ruth, Emily, Lindsey
Our thoughts & prayers are with you and the boys!!!! Brent will be greaty missed. Please let us know if there is anything at all we can do for you and your family.

Tim, I am so sorry to hear about your brother. He was a sweet soul. My thoughts and prayers are with you and the rest of his family.
Brent was the best neighbor anyone could have. He was someone I could always talk with about life, etc.. and feel at ease. He was a good friend, father and husband. I attended all the way from Dallas the family and friend celebration of Brent’s life the night before he died and was in awe of the love and admiration of his friends, collegues and family. He has left a loving legacy with his wife and sons. My prayers and thoughts are with him and his family. We will all miss Brent, but know there is one heck of a party going on in heaven!
Scott, Tim, Teresa and family,
I am so sorry to hear of the passing of Brent. He was a good friend and always a smiling face at the Career Center when he came to work on the phones. He will be greatly missed. I remember my days of working with him at the telephone company. My prayers are with you.
Sincerely, Teresa and Charlie Boyer
Brent was always so welcoming and willing to stop and visit. Having worked with him in the 70’s & 80’s at GTE, I can speak to his great nature. Sorry for your loss.
We have known Brent most of our life. As a classmate, attended school with him from grade school thru high school. Also, a neighbor and family friend. Brent will always be remembered for his humor, great personality and will be missed greatly. Steve & Sharon – Moberly, MO
I am sorry to hear of Brent’s passing. He was such a great natured person and was alway good to have a conversation with about anything. He did work for us while he was still with the phone company. I am sure he will be missed.
Teresa, Brandon & David, I am so sorry to hear of Brent’s passing. We went to school together from kindergarten through high school in Moberly and lost touch until I moved to Columbia. He recognized me when working on our office phone system. I felt blessed to have been able to catch up with him and stay in touch. He always spoke so fondly of you and I had hoped to meet you last Saturday but couldn’t attend. It does seem so many good people die young. He will be fondly remembered by everyone whose life he touched. I know as hard as it is to have him leave you here, he will always be with you. You will hold him close every day in your heart. Blessings, Wanda Bressman
To Brent Brubaker’s family, I’m very sorry to hear of his passing I didn’t know that until tonight’s paper. Brent, Scott, and I knew each other thru Drafting classes and we all had a great time together. I think the last time I saw him was 3 years ago. Wish you all the best and Brent will truly be missed.

Teresa, Brandon and David, we were so sorry to hear of Brent’s passing, but at least his suffering is over. We’re so glad we were able to spend some time with him on July 4th. Our family has dealt with cancer a few times so we know how it feels to have your entire life consumed by the battle. In the days ahead, you will go through many different kinds of emotions as you try to return to a normal existence. Our thoughts and prayers are with you. Sincerely, Connie, John and Carl
