About Him

 

A MEMORABLE LIFE

 

Brent was born in San Francisco and raised in San Bruno, CA. He will be remembered as a very special son to Susan Canale of San Bruno and James Aguilar of Manteca. He is survived by his wife Karla, beloved father of Suzette (14), Brent Jr. (10), Elena (7), and Antonio (5), sister Reina Canale, loving Grandmother Therese Canale (93), Godparents Donald and Judith Orr and countless uncles, aunts, cousins and friends.

Brent proudly obtained a black belt at Bill Grossman’s School of Kempo Karate. He relocated to San Antonio, Texas, where he became a successful real estate entrepreneur. He enjoyed buying and selling cars and showing his luxury vehicles through his SWIFT Car Club.

Brent brought happiness to all he met with his bright smile and energetic personality.

AT PEACE

During the cemetery burial, a Red Admiral butterfly flew around the family and landed on the grave. Red Admiral butterflies are native to Texas, not California where Brent was laid to rest. The butterfly spread out its wings and stayed during Reverend Michael Brillantes’ entire blessings. We feel that the butterfly was Brent’s spirit telling us that he is at peace.
