Lily Kent Obituary

Lily A. Kent In Belmont Hills on March 23, 2010 at the age of 77. Born and raised in Morocco, she migrated to the United States in her mid-20's. Lily lived and worked in the Bay Area for more than 40 years, and was married to Gordon Kent for 36 years until his death in 2001. Lily spoke several languages, traveled the world many times and was truly an international beauty. She will be long remembered for her warmth, kindness, love of children, devotion to the Jewish community, and most of all, her immense love of family. She touched many lives, but none more than her children (David, Alyssa and Thalia) and grandchildren (Jordan & Ariel). She will be greatly missed, but her legacy will live on each day and for generations to come. Services, March 26th at 10am at Hills of Eternity Cemetery Chapel, 1301 El Camino Real, Colma. In lieu of flowers, donations to American Alzheimer's Association, or Congregation Beth Jacob in Redwood City, would be appreciated.
