“I was saddened to hear of Kent's passing. During my Peel time, Kent was a huge part of the team. He was a great one to 'brainstorm' with, and share insights. I have thought of him often since then, and my thoughts are with Josie and family during this difficult time. Mike Garrett”

James Stokes wrote a sympathy message

“My condolences to Kent's family. It's been more than 20 years since I worked with Kent at Peel, but I couldn't begin to count how many times over the years, and even very recently, that I have thought about him, his amazing (and patient) mentoring ability, and everything I learned from and about him. Few people impact people's careers so positively as he did mine and now I wish I had thanked him more. Thanks Kent. Jim.”
