Kent KING Obituary

Loving son, brother and uncle Age 55 passed away from cancer. Upon his wishes, Kent was buried in the Catholic cemetery in Fort Thompson, SD, near Dakota Sioux land next to the Missouri river where he vacationed and contributed to the Native Americans. Survived by parents Paul and Judy King of White Bear Lake and brothers Shane, Todd and Chad; and many relatives and friends. A Celebration of his life will be held on Sunday, Feb. 23, at St. Mary's Catholic Church in White Bear from 2-5 PM in the St. Joseph room. Kent was a partner in Judy King Estate Sales. An art enthusiast, he was an avid reader and restored vintage houses. He was generous to people in need. Any memorials will be dispersed to his favorite Indian schools.

To Kent's family. I just found out tonight 10/10/14, that Kent had passed away, and I was "floored". Kent as you know loved to collect "Schmidt City Club" breweriana, I collected Hamm's. Over the years we traded, and he purchased signs from me....Kent was a great guy, with an upbeat personality. He was always a guy who played on the level. I am so sorry for your loss, I am truly going to "miss" him. God Bless!

Mr. and Mrs. King, Kent was such an important part of my family's life, including my mother, sister, her children and myself for as long as I can remember. He had to be one of the most altruistic and hard-working men that ever lived. He will be missed terribly.
