Dear Mitch and Iris,
Sorry for your loss. May God bless your family. Kent is a great tennis player and nice gentleman. We played in the mens doubles group recently few years and I also played some singles tennis with him last couple of months. Like everyone else, I truly enjoyed playing and chatting with him. We will miss him dearly in the tennis court.

Where does one find the words of comfort to express at a time like this? There are none. The best that we can offer are our heartfelt thoughts, our prayers for God's grace and comfort, and the knowledge that Kent was welcomed into the loving arms of a gracious, loving God as he entered pearly gates and second in line was his brother Scott.

Mr. & Mrs. Carr and family,
I am so sorry for your loss. My memories of Kent (in High school as I graduated with him) was of a sweet, fun, always smiling guy! Handsome too I will admit! My prayers and hugs are with you now and for the time to come.

Kent had just this year made his presence know on the tennis courts at Pelican Marsh Tennis Center. He was great fun to play with and be around.
He will certainly be missed by his tennis friends and all those who knew him. Much to young to leave this earth.......

Mr. and Mrs. Carr,
There are no words to describe the depth of grief you all must be feeling and going through with this tragedy. As someone very close to Kent, I can tell you he loved and admired you all with every cell in his being! Hoping his beautiful spirit and light, with the grace of God, will provide comfort and peace to you all in the coming months and years remembering his best attributes and the love in his heart for his family. Regrettably, I never had the honor to meet you all when he was living. You think there is always time..

Sincerely,

David Bottenfield

Mitch and Iris, words of course just don't seem to work very well in these moments. Our family is just so, so sorry for your loss. I only had the privilege of meeting and speaking with Kent a couple of times, but he seemed very kind and warm in them. I remember one being about flying and how free Kent said it made him feel, and then of course how it was so much faster to fly than to drive almost anywhere! I have no idea what it feels like to experience what you both are walking through but our family will commit to praying for you all as you walk this path. Again, we are just so sorry.
