Brent Lewis Evans II passed away on April 15, 2025, at the age of 45.

Brent was known for his sharp, dry sense of humor — a trait proudly inherited from his dad’s side of the family. He had a special fondness for Calvin and Hobbes, even gifting his father the complete collection.

He also enjoyed the wit of The Far Side comic strip’s offbeat humor, bizarre situations and unconventional take on everyday life.

He found peace and joy in cooking, especially meals rich with hearty gravies, which he loved to share with friends and family. For Brent, cooking was more than a skill — it was a way to relax, connect, and show love.

Brent had a deep and loyal bond with his dogs, Lulu and Izzy, who were his constant companions and cherished friends.

Above all, Brent had a generous heart. He never hesitated to help anyone in need, always offering his time, strength, or support without expecting anything in return.

At the age of 13, Brent faced a life-threatening medical condition that affected his left leg and required multiple surgeries and long hospital stays. Though the experience left its mark, it never defined him or slowed his spirit.

A proud graduate of Sam Houston High School, Class of 1998, Brent worked a variety of jobs over the years — welder, bartender, truck driver, and security guard. He had a passion for hands-on work, especially building and fabricating projects around the house.

He loved spending time with friends, his dogs, and at the beach. Brent also had a deep interest in history, especially military history, and he had an incredible memory for details that most people would forget.

Brent is survived by his mother, Margaret Rabert Evans; his father, Brent Lewis Evans; his stepmother, Thresea Evans; his sister, Kimberly Shelton; his uncles, Russell Evans and Bruce Evans; his stepsiblings, Blake Thibodeaux and Brandi Mathews; as well as multiple cousins niece and nephews; and his fiancée, Sarahbeth Schexneider.

A graveside service will be held at Magnolia Cemetery of Westlake Wednesday, April 23, 2025 at 2 p.m.
