Love you (No words really express the emotions that one feels at a time like this)
Kent was one of the finest human beings I’ve ever known. An amazing family man and friend. I was blessed to have known him and a better person because of it.
best example I know when it came to “be of good cheer” and “just do it”
I remember Kent at Westwood High school, he always had a smile for everyone he met. Sending sympathy and comforting prayers to his family.
Our sincere condolences to your family. Went to school with Kent but haven’t seen him since 1971.
My condolences to Kent’s family. I worked closely with Kent for 10 years at the World-Herald before I retired. I enjoyed listening to his stories about working with the Scouts and his early years in electronics, and he was someone I could learn from and confide in. He will be missed.
Thank you Kent for being my friend.
Ken will be missed and remembered fondly for his many kindnesses to everyone he met. What a wonderful example of charity and love for our Lord Jesus Christ. Until we all see you again in Heaven…..thoughts and prayers…..
Love and blessings of peace and comfort to you and yours in this time of the passing of Kent Tryon, Love you all.
Love you so much Syr. I can only imagine the amazing reunion you are having with your siblings and your mom and dad. You will be forever missed. And never forgotten.
Loved being able to share in the memories of Kent via the internet. I will always remember Kent as a man of few words, but every word was meaningful, memorable and above all spoken with love, respect and kindness. His testimony and example that he left behind will be a pillar of strength for all of his posterity and friends that he left behind. Our prayers and love are with you all, Richard and Susan.
Kent was a great friend and fellow employee. He will be missed by many.
