Send Flowers to the Family Offer Condolences or MemoryBRENT LUCAS GILLSON April 24, 1981 - December 11, 2002 We miss... Watching you grow up, making fewer bad choices and living a full life Driving to work with you, you snoring and smiling because you knew how annoying you were, You providing Kelly with money for a Christmas gift Our lunches together at Grandma's house You curled up in your quilt, safe in your bed Your presence at Christmas Eve church service, counting the toupees You asking my opinion when you bought your scarf on that last night You finally making me understand that you were part of the family even if you didn't want to participate in all activities that were organized You asking Gary for your favorite lemon chicken Everything that made you who you were You are part of us every day. We were blessed with you, ache for you and love you forever. Love Mom, Gary, Trevor, Lindsay, Lucas, Aubree, Kelly, Mike, Gma, Chris and Kyle.

I had a dream about you the night before you passed. You were packing a suitcase, those orange sunglasses you are wearing in this picture on your head. You were so happy. I felt guilty because I wanted you to stay. You told me to take care of Marisa. Your mom told me those glasses along with many of your belongings went missing. Friends coming to visit taking something as they left perhaps? Silly, but i guess I can understand. I think they just wanted to keep a piece of you with them. I couldn't come to terms with you being gone for the longest time. I still don't understand why that happened to you. I didn't want you to go. I miss you still as much as ever. I pass that tree almost everyday. Just a stub left there now. I must admit i still tear up. You were such a good person. With such a kind heart. We all make mistakes. Lord knows I've made many of my own. Like me, you were just living and learning never meaning to hurt anyone. I remember the last time I saw you. What you said to me. I remember you calling me at work the night of the crash. Telling me about this awesome scarf asking me me if I thought you could pull it off. Lol you could pull anything off. Gorgeous boy. You wantede to come out that night. You tried to get a hold of me again later that night. Aww man i wish i could live that night over. I know everything happens for a reason but what i wouldnt give to have seen you. I'm so sad that I don't get to see you, go for walks downtown...go out for drinks and go for our drives. You said we'd grow old together and our kids were going to play together one day. :( I hold my daughter sometimes and cry. I feel so lucky. I wish you could know her. And her you. She reminds me of you... Fearless, beautiful, and everybody loves her. I miss that look you would give me when I walked I to a room. You were such a good friend to me. You made me feel so special. Brent I miss you so much. Still a fresh wound on my heart. I will never forget you. Ten years already. seems like just yeaterday the way it still hurts..yet feels like a lifetime since ive seen you. i Love you so much my friend. You are an angel now and I feel your presence often. I know you are looking out for me and I know you have something to do with every good thing in my life. Thank you xo - Posted by: Ali (Friend ) on: Dec 07, 2012
