BRENT HOSKINS CROSBY - JUNE 3, 1952 - JUNE 17 2026
Bountiful, Utah-Brent Hoskins Crosby, 74, passed away on June Wednesday 17th at Lakeview hospital in Bountiful Utah. He was accompanied by his son and brother in his last moments.
Brent was born in Salt Lake City, Utah on June 3rd 1952, the youngest of three brothers to Harvey and Cossette Crosby. He was preceded in death by his parents, brother Michael, and two granddaughters. He is survived by his only son, Nick and his family, his brother Arnold and family, and multiple nieces and nephews and their respective families.
He was a talented musician appearing on Dick Clark and touring with his bandmates in the late 60's and 70's. He worked throughout his life as a crafts person, setting tiles and pouring his artistry into every job he did. He managed sales and offices treating everyone with care and dignity that they will never forget. He served as a caregiver for his parents toward the end of their lives, allowing them to spend their final years in their home. In his retirement, he worked as a parts runner for an autoparts store taking pride in every achievement and award they received. Every task he took on, he gave it his all.
He had a passion for the outdoors, especially when it involved playing golf. He spent years playing multiple times a week with friends and family. He remembered every shot, his hole in one, but mainly the conversation he had with those he played with. Those long walks were always opportunities to listen and share. They meant a great deal to him.
In lieu of services, the family asks that people remember him in their own way as Brent meant different things in different ways to everyone he knew. But it is suggested that at some point in time those remembering him should take a moment to think of him while listening to Clair De Lune.

We had so much fun with Brent as a cheerleading squad. There was only 8 of us with no Teacher Advisor, so we got pretty close through all our practices and experiences at games. We will miss you Brent!

Like Lorraine, I mostly remember Brent from our Cheerleading days. We lived in the same general neighborhood and therefore would share a ride from time to time. I always enjoyed our conversations and his humor.

Rest in peace Brent. My fond memories and the good times we had together will not be forgotten.

For a short while Brent lived a tew houses up from mine and we became friends. He played the guitar and we would get together with some other buddies and sing along with him to some of our favorite songs.

Brent was a classmate with character. We were not close friends, but from afar, I always considered him a cool guy. It nice to see that he enjoyed a good, interesting life.

I'm grateful for the opportunity I had to know Brent. He always had a smile and a kind word to share. Our cheerleading days were fun and happy times. An awesome musician and kind friend, Brent lived a purposeful life. Lucky we had a few of those years to share

Story shared by Bob Banks:
Little did many know but Brent an I knew each other for many years. When we were nine years old we both lived in a ward near Viewmont but the Highscool wasn't built and it was just a swamp. Brent wanted to run away from home. He convinced me to go with him. He was an amazing story teller and he had it all worked out so we got on our bikes and made it as far as Beck Strree in Salt lake. We were rescued by his father and he took us home. Brent was always into music and Brent and I were Chosen to be part of the first Mormon Tabernacle youth choir and symphony together.
