My Condolences and prayers to the Family as Kent was a good Friend and will be missed.
This is a very sad time for Kent’s loving family. He was so very proud of them and always shared their achievements with us. All of his former classmates, such as myself, are also very saddened to lose such a great guy. Our portion of the class of 1955 could be a “wild and crazy” bunch. So many great and goofy times together. I remember several of us son a very cold winter night+ driving around the “back roads.” We actually found two frozen opossums, and of course had to find a place for them. What better place than someone’s mailbox.
I will miss seeing Kent’s posts as it was my only connection with him. I knew he was ill for sometime but that didn’t stop him from sharing his life with us. Thank you, dear Kent. May you rest in peace always, especially in our hearts.
family, family, family 1st Fantastic personality and such caring for other people. wrestling, photography, golf ( although you were not that good – my opinion) I enjoyed every minute we shared together. RIP Kent You may not get a library but you left your legacy on family and all us who had the opportunity to know you. Our prayers continue for Pat and the family and our prayers will continue!
