Born in Harrisburg, February 3, 1956 a son of the late Gerald and Florence Witmer Daniels. Brent was a 1974 graduate of Upper Dauphin Area High School. He continued his education and graduated as a Registered Nurse from Harrisburg Area Community College.

Brent was a member of St. Christopher's Lutheran Church, Lykens, Knights of Columbus, Lykens, Liberty Hose Company #2, Lykens and the Gratz V.F.W.
Brent lived his life to the fullest. He could often be found cheering on his Pittsburgh Steelers from his man cave that he built, on his tractor cutting the grass, fishing and doing crossword puzzles. He lived for summer days at his pool.
He was the friend that you could always depend on, the one that was there to lend a hand no matter what the situation and if something needed fixed, he was the one to call. His family and friends were the center of his world.
Surviving are his wife of 41 years, Tina White Daniels, three children; Jennifer Daniels and her wife Tanya Daniels, Lykens, Allison Daniels and her partner Alyssa Schadle, Tower City and Jacob Daniels and his wife Kim Weber Daniels, St. Augustine, Florida; a grandson, Brayden Daniels, two sisters; Treasure Keiter and her husband Elmer, Halifax and Joyce Reed and her husband George, Wiconisco; mother-in-law, Joan Wolfe, Lykens; sister-in-law, Kathy Gibson, Lykens.
