J. Medicine Hat Obituary

J. Medicine Hat (Jent Monk)

Passed away August 13, 2012. Though best known for sharing his laughter with tens of thousands of fans across the country, he gave in equal measure the warmth of his smile and the charity of his heart. His comedy spread joy to audiences nationwide; his generosity spread hope and heat to the families of Pine Ridge. More than a performer, he was a selfless father, loyal friend, and a courageous advocate for Native Americans. He is preceded in death by his father, S. Earl and his son, Cody. He is survived by his wife Tracy; mother, Bonnie; step-father, Larry; his daughters, Jenny, Kelsie and Lauren; and his granddaughter, Liberty. He also leaves his brother, Kent and wife Nancy; and his sister, Angie and husband Jerry.
The family and the Funny Bone of Omaha will be holding a MEMORIAL SERVICE September 9th from 2-5pm at the Kroc Center, 2825 Y St, Omaha, NE.
