When cold and icy February arrives, you are even more on my mind. You lost so much during Covid, your beloved tennis, time with friends, your devoted dogs who predeceased you. You hung on bravely for as long as you could. I wish I'd been better able to "be there" for you, but Covid took that away too. The "boys" love the watches you left them. Love always, B.

Kendall,

You have been missed. Remembering all the fun times we had with UNT guys and girls, the weddings, rafting the Rio Grand, snow skiing with Joe, Pulp Fiction at midnight, UNT football games, and all those great conversations throughout the years. Wish we could have had a few more adventures. See you on the other side.

Kendall Hibbs you were smart, caring and a buddy of buddies. I enjoyed teaching you the game of tennis and I’m glad you ran with it because you helped lots players how to become better players. Your friendship was unique as we both helped each other navigate through life’s curveballs. I will miss talking to you in person or 5hrs long on the phone. You never knew when to stop talking and I’m sorry if you had more to say and I would cut you off. Buddy, we enjoyed our time on the court and on the poker table because you always knew how to make us all laugh . I’m hoping you weren’t alone in your quick illness and I wish I could have been there to hold your hand my friend. May your soul rest well in the hands of God until we meet again my brother of another mother. Miss seeing your smile and miss listening to you ramble on about any and everything since you knew something about everything. May your spirit live on for I feel it every time I drive down 75 Central and Eldorado. John Lara saluting you my good friend RIP forever.
