He set an example that is hard to follow. When I get tired of it all, I remember the way he wouldn't quit. He definitely had a strong spirit.

I thought it would be a good time to reminisce about people who are definitely missed around here:

"My name is Brent Smith. My exposure to the dialysis industry began in 1973, two weeks before my 18th birthday. A year later, I received my first transplant which was from my mother. Two months later, the kidney failed due to infection, and I returned to dialysis. In 1977, I received a second transplant from my grandmother. That transplant succumbed to complications in 1990. I returned to dialysis in the fall of that year. Soon after, it became all too clear that the entity providing treatment, its administration, the support staff, and many of the standard procedures with which I was familiar had changed drastically."

I remember Brent's sister telling me that Brent always felt connected to Bumble Bees. With their wing spread and bodies, it was impossible for them to fly...yet they could.
