In the early 1980's he served as the vice president and later as the president of the Jefferson Hills Men's Golf Association. In 1990 Kent was elected to serve as city councilman and also served as Mayor in the town he dearly loved. Also in 1990, he was elected Legislative Liaison for the Region Six Idaho Wildlife Council.

Trey blessed Kent and JoAnn with two great-granddaughters, Avia'Lynn and Brexley Ann. Kent is also survived by many cousins, nieces and nephews.
At the family's request, there will be no public funeral services.
Kent's family requests that you respect their privacy as they deal with the grief of the passing of this good and beloved man.
If you want to connect and honor Kent, take a stroll on the walking path in Menan, the town he grew up in, served and loved. If you like to fish, go to the South Fork of the Snake River and try your luck at fishing. That would make him happy.
Our family wants to thank Dr. Richard Harper of Upper Valley Family Medicine. He cared for Kent and our family; he's not just our doctor but also a beloved friend. Our community is richly blessed to have this good and honorable man as a doctor in Rigby. We are humbled by the love and care he gives our family.
We offer a heartfelt thanks to the Wildflower Memory Care Facility and all who work there. Your care for Kent and our family was so kind and caring. Thanks goes to Solace Hospice Care and everyone who cared for us right up to the end.
May he rest in peace.
