Not sure what to say?

Loved the smile and wine he shared with the world.

Kent's passing is a great loss to so many. He was fun, outgoing, smart, caring and the best family man. I will never forget all the great times we had at our house in Lafayette with all the kiddos.
I hope to see you soon, Broms. So sorry I couldn't get to the service but I was out of town. I'll look forward to getting together soon = maybe with Chawks too.
Love you!!

Dear Susan and family,

We remember standing on the sidelines watching a Williams lacrosse game with Kent. Many years ago.
We learned so much about Kent from his obituary.Lynda sent it to me. I wish we had had more time together. He was a wonderful man.
Ben is living on Collins St and loves SF.
We will see you on one of our trips to SF.
Hugs to all.

My deepest sympathy to the entire Barber family for the loss of such a great man. I worked with Kent at the Health Plan of San Mateo. He was a joy to work with-so kind and caring to everyone with a great sense of humor. My favorite memory of his caring and compassion was when he was beyond kind enough to go with my son to his 2nd grade Grandparents day at school so he would not be the only child without a grandparent there. I will miss him very much. Heaven has another wonderful angel now.

Dear Mrs. Barber, Willa, Hough, Elizabeth, Tersh & Sarah,

I am truly sorry to hear of your beloved dad's passing. He was always so welcoming to me (as you all were) to your incredibly warm and lively home on Commonwealth Street. I remember many family dinners with many of you that included great food and wine, and lots of laughs- Dr. Barber of course at the helm! My deepest sympathies go out to all of you in this sad time.

Love,

Amy (Wyler) Barboro

A stalwart at St. Mary's, it was a comfort always to see Kent and Susan there. Kent showed an interest in the things that interested the people around him, a true skill - and a gift - to anyone who sat and talked with him. I always admired and appreciated Kent, and I am sad to say goodbye...

Kent's humor, generosity, magnanimity, and interest in every individual.
