Not sure what to say?

Kent, you are now with your beloved Debbie. May you birthday have eternal life. RIP.

Uncle Kent (famously known as "UK") was everyone's biggest cheerleader. Whenever something exciting happened to one of us (his nieces and nephews), we just had to call and tell Aunt Debbie and Uncle Kent. He would make it an even bigger deal and made us feel so special! I will always remember that feeling. Summers at 4 High Ridge were the absolute best times! I am so grateful for all the memories and am blessed to have had him in my life.

My Uncle Kent and Aunt Debbie were a big part of my life growing up! Every summer we’d pack up the car, and slide for 6 hours on the plastic seats of our wagon, headed to #4 High Ridge Road. Summers there were full of family, music, movies (mostly the ones Chris directed), swimming and sleeping wherever you fell. Those memories are a gift I will always be grateful for. UK - thanks for being a really great Uncle. I will love and miss you for the rest of my life! I promise to never turn...
