Trent~ I was really heartbroken when I found out you left us. The day I met you, I remember telling Brad "I really like him, he's good people for sure" and I've never thought differently. One thing that I will always remember is you pulling up on your bike to the park we were at and I look over, you were smiling taking pictures of my kids in the hollow tree and then you had to leave and I told you next time I seen Ya I wanted to see the pics..well sadly, that was the last time. Thank you for being so awesome to and around my kids, I truly have the up most respect for you because of the awesome person you were/are and it's all REAL.. Keep being who you are, you're so truly missed by many.. RIP Buddy xoxo

But the first time I met him he walked in my kitchen, and on the counter I had a big glass of Ice water that I was waiting to drink, he walks in and chugs the whole thing! I was speechless! I was like really??? He said that was the sweetest glass of water I ever had! I was like wow ! I laughed he said I'm Trent by the way!! Lol!! After that he made me laugh!! I will never forget him!' I know you are in a better place , God takes the good ones first!!! His impact on all of us was truely a blessing!!! May God give you peace through all of this!!

From the very first time we met until the very end you was a s#!t, I say this very proudly!! Every time we would see each other that is what I would yell at him instead of his name.He would turn or stand and give me a one finger wave, Then I would usually get the biggest hug ever!! He would then go and get us a beverage and b.s. me until my ribs hurt from laughing!!! I have missed the times we would b at a car show or drag race and the trunk would pop or the tailgate flop down, out comes the cooler and bbq grill and it was on!!!
We have loved you like you was our own and will miss seeing your face!!! But we will have so many memories that will never Be taken away!!! We will miss you very, very much!!
Bennetts and Baileys you know Den, Dennis, Kelli and I love You all very much!!!
Give grandma hugs from us!!!

Trent always told me to smile and he was my best friend I love him more than anyone will ever know. He was one of the best people I have ever met and when I was lost and broken he picked me up and made me put myself back together even though I fought him every step of the way. I wouldn't be who I am today if I'd never met him.
I love u trent and I miss you. At least you'll have good company, tell my baby I love him. I'll always love you... Smile; as always annette
