Jonathan Kent

Jonathan L. (Jon) Kent, passed away this past Friday, October 22, 2021, in the afternoon, at his condo in Los Angeles. This was not COVID-related, if one might ask.
Jon lived his life as a champion. He suffered an injury in a car accident 42 years ago that left him a quadriplegic. 42 years in that condition would be more than I, and probably most, could contemplate.
His doctors predicted that he would live, at most, 6 years after the accident. Yet, Jon faced every day with a smile and a clever comment or joke that constantly brought light into the lives of the people around him.
I think of his life as one of God's gifts and a miracle and Jon took everything in stride making the best of everything. May the Good Lord rest his wonderful soul!
Jon is survived by his sisters, Rahel & Lonnie, his brother, Howard, his nieces Lillian & Isabella and his mother, Florence.
Jon will be laid to rest at: FT. LOGAN NATIONAL CEMETERY 4400 WEST KENYON AVENUE, DENVER, CO 80236 (303) 761-0117 on Monday, November 8, 2021, at 10:00 a.m.
If there is an additional service, I will update this post.
