Although I had not had seen Kent in many years, I have so many childhood memories that he is a part of. After I moved away in the 6th grade whenever I came back to Warner Robins I always made a point to go spend time with Kent. He was always so full of life and fun. Though it has been almost a month since his passing, I still can't believe that he has left this earth. My heart breaks for his sweet parents, his children, his wife,and all that knew and loved him.
