Handsome, strong and intelligent. Brent Russell McDonald loved and cared for his wife Linda, his children; Thad, Jenny and Lori, his golfing buddies, and even strangers who were hurting with an uncompromising deepness. A democrat through-and-through; Brent had a dogged determination and passion for politics and a profound empathy for the less fortunate. He saw the true magnificence in heaven and earth. And he was one with nature and all living things. Brent's energy was magnetic, people found themselves drawn to his tender heart and reverberating voice. They hung on every word of his comedic and uncensored stories. He is survived by his wife, three children, mother Marjorie, and siblings; Norman, Carrie, Stuart, Arla, Monte, and Gae. Any person blessed enough to know this loving, passionate and trusting man is invited to a "Celebration of Brent's Life" at Old Mill golf course (6080 South Wasatch Blvd) Tuesday, July 27th from 7:30pm-9:00pm.
