Kent was a man of few words, but each one counted. He will be sincerely missed by all of those lucky to have known him. Friends will be received Wednesday, July 24, at the GEORGE A. THOMA FUNERAL HOME, INC., 10418 Perry Highway Wexford, PA 15090 from 10 a.m. - 11 a.m. followed by a Memorial Service beginning at the conclusion of visitation at 11 a.m. Interment will be private. Charitable giving was important to Kent so the family requests that, in lieu of flowers, donation can be made in Kent's honor to the charity of your choice. Send condolences post-gazette.com/gb
