Not sure what to say?

Kenton, and you Sarah, are continually in my prayers. I miss Kenton. Will be attending Manresa in a few weeks. I will post his name in the book of remembrance.

I will always remember Kenton for his smile and kindness to everyone he was around! He was a gift to those who had the chance to be in his presence.

It was an absolute pleasure getting to know Kenton through his volunteer time at First Tee. Our staff and kids were always so appreciative of his enthusiasm for kids, and their ability to learn through the game. His servant's heart was large, and his impact was too. I'm so sorry for you and your family's loss - he will be missed by First Tee and our team as well. May God grant you peace during this time. Tyler Smies Executive Director

My heart goes out to all of you. I cannot imagine what you are going through. I wish could be there to hear the outpouring of love for such a wonderful person. Kenton's kind smile, joy, authenticity, warmth, generosity and pure love will continue in Sarah, Nathan, Rachel and all of us that were lucky enough to be inspired by him.

I so appreciated all of his advice and feedback to help all of us in the men's group progress into more nurturing and fulfilling relationships. ...

Kenton joined me at over 14 schools in the Flint/Saginaw area as well as countless other presentations. He was truly in his element sharing the love story of organ donation with students and the community. During our time together, I got to know him. He shared how much he loved watching his grandkids on Tuesdays and Fridays, how proud his was of his son´s marriage, his daughter´s graduation and career and his love for his wife. Originally, I viewed Kenton as a great volunteer but as time...
