I remember when I went to a mustang show at Ford Park, one that Trent was going to be working at, and he was able to give me a ride in one of the old military jeeps that was there. He will be truly missed.

My heart has never been so heavy for someone I barely knew. I knew Trent because he used to always park his ST next to mine in the Exygon parking lot. He finally caught me leaving one day to comment on my car and we chatted about how much we loved the ST. He’d pass me in the gym and say “done anything extra to that car yet” and flash a big smile. We’d even flash our light ha and wave when we’d see each other out and about. Undoubtedly one of the nicest strangers I’ve ever met. My heart goes out to his friends and family and all those who cared about him. RIP Trent
