Not sure what to say?

To my cousins and their families, i wish i was there to celebrate the life and times of uncle don. He was a man of wonder, a man of laughter, a friend to all, and a fantastic uncle to all of us and of that , i am grateful !

I met Don a few years ago at a Maryville College reunion which I attended with my father John "Dick" Moore who was a contemporary of Don's. Coincidentally, John also passed away this summer, just 3 months before Don. I know that your family misses Don and my thoughts are with you.

Don was a memorable individual and, above all, a man dedicated to his communities with a singular sense of humor. My son Justin, now 11, fondly remembers meeting Don and the impromptu tour Don gave him of the Spy House just four years ago.
With our sympathies to all members of the Kent family, far and near, Claudia and Justin Dumas, Washington, D.C.

My condolences to the Kent family
It was an honor meeting him. Will miss our talks at supper.
He will always be remembered as " MY CUZ" RIP CUZ.

I remain honored to have known Don and Mary who stood for all the right values. Their integrity is still an influence on me. May they rest in peace.
