Not sure what to say?

Dr. Kent was such a caring person and all her children (patients)became family to her. As Bridget mentioned - having worked for Blanca for 8 yrs., she was a dear friend and will be missed by all. Our condolences to all her family. Steve & Mary Ropar

My children loved Dr. Kent, and she loved them. She will be greatly missed.

Dr. Blanca Kent had boundless energy, a "get it done" amazing networking ability to bring people and resources together, and a real dedication and loyalty to her friends and family. We enjoyed discussing the beauty of Ushuaia as the step- off city to the Antarctic. Recently she gave me her book on the Infant of Prague which she said was a guide and inspiration to her. I'm sure she's enjoying being with the Supreme Healer, now.

You were one of a kind, Blanca. I only hope that you knew how much your family loved you and appreciated you. You will remain in our memories and close to our hearts forever. I hope to be able to accomplish even a small percent of what you were able to achieve in your amazing life.

I grew up calling her Aunt Blanca. She was truly and inspirational person. She taught me and my brothers and sisters to be very worldly and open minded. Her accomplishments in her field were nothing short of amazing. Aunt Blanca was always very warm, an outstanding listener, and a very giving human being. We will miss her.

Please except our deepest sympathy. Through the many years that I worked with her, she became more of a friend than an employer. We will truly miss her.

I am the niece of Charles Kent and now live in Florids. I visited Blanca and Charles when they lived in Bexley. Thoroughly enjoyed our short visit and have video tapes of them which I can and have viewed many times to relive the joy we experienced while visiting them many years ago. She will be sadly missed as Charles has been.

You were special and will never be forgotten.

I was deeply saddened to read of Dr. Kent's passing, as I am sure was the entire Ohio State and Columbus community. She was widely admired and respected, and will be missed, by patients, friends and colleagues. Her family is in our thoughts and prayers.
