Kent graduated from Mechanicsburg High School as part of the class of 1962.  He retired as the store manager from Napa in Harrisburg, PA, after many years of service as a sales representative.  Kent was a proud Air Force veteran.  He was an extremely proud father and his grandson was the apple of his eye.  Kent was a life-member of the American Legion #109 in Mechanicsburg where he served as President of the Home Association for over 20 years and as the canteen manager.  He was a member of the Lower Allen VFW #7530 , the Mechanicsburg Club , the Businessmen’s League in Mechanicsburg, and the F&AM Masonic Eureka Lodge #302 in Mechanicsburg.  Kent was an avid lover of dogs, golf, cars, and yard work especially while riding his John Deer Tractor.  He loved the outdoors, NASCAR Racing, Baseball, and Budweiser (not necessarily in that order).
