Brent Ingram lit up a room as soon as he entered. He was born April 17, 1962 in Glendale, California. In first grade, Brent moved to Los Banos where he attended Miano Elementary School and all further education was in Los Banos.
His first jobs were washing dishes at Ming's Restaurant and sweeping floors at Rick's Auto body. After that, he would continually approach Mr. Angelo Casella to see if he had any jobs for him. Persistence paid off, and Brent became an Aseptic Mechanic. He went on to be instrumental in the construction of Ingomar Plant 2 where he became a supervisor. Brent made his tour of the tomato plants working at Tri-Valley and Morning Star. These jobs introduced him to many longtime friends. His next career was at San Luis Dam and Dos Amigos. He loved animals and brought food to feed what became his pet duck. At home, Brent's love for animals continued. He enjoyed carrying his cats, Mr. Kitty and Lucky, on his shoulders. He looked forward to brushing them and he especially loved giving them many, many treats. Whenever he visited his brother in law, he always brought Jerky to Michael's dog, Jody.
Brent was a skilled skier and worked at China Peak Ski Resort which earned him free skiing during his hours off. He was an avid golfer and just like at his jobs, his hobbies gained him many good friends.
Brent had many talents and was a skilled craftsman. He built a fountain and planter bed in his back yard and could do both electrical and plumbing. Any job that he did, he did to perfection. Often times, you could see him outside blowing leafs and fixing sprinklers. His homes were always in pristine condition. He was definitely a great handyman!
