Kent i am really upset at the fact that you are now gone :| it happened way to soon. I wish i could be there to say goodbye, i remember i met you at 16 when i started my first job at bk lol you were so nice, always smiling, hard worker, and you were a really good friend(: i also remember us playing frisbee at the restaurant on a sunday, and we accidentally messed up a window hehe, i will miss you dearly love you always yuri.
ReplyDeleteAh Kent, such a fabulous person! I have 2 favorite Kent stories and they both happened at family campout reunion thingers. #1. We went to the Heber Valley Camp and Kent cut open his armpit on the flagpole and had to get stitches. I remember that he had to stay up until a certain hour to take some more medication for it, so I took that task upon myself to help him stay up until we reached that time. That was the funniest and best night ever! We laughed and talked about everything under the sun. Kent was a little loopy from the painkillers, so it made it even better. Good times. #2. We were camped at Bennion Creek up Spanish Fork Canyon and Kent and I were both at an age where we were very interested in relationships and all that good jazz. I have a really hard time opening up to people, but that night Kent was able to open me right up and dig deep. We discussed relationships from my point of view and his point of view. He told me all about how boys think and I told him all about how girls think. We talked about our secret crushes and why we liked those people. We stayed up way late tending the fire and just talking. It was a great night and I thought it was the best. I'm so glad I had these bonding opportunities. I miss and love you Kent!

What a beautiful way to pay tribute to Kent. I didn't know Kent super well, but even so whenever I was around him he was always so welcoming and friendly to both myself and my son, Corban! He's someone I would like to have had the chance to get to know better. I have no doubt that one day I will (being the sister of his sister in law). My thoughts and prayers are with his family and friends unceasingly.
ReplyDeleteKent,
ReplyDeleteI am sad that you are gone. It takes a lot for me to consider someone a friend, but you are one of my best. We were not in each others lives for very long, but I will always remember the good times. Thank you for those memories. My thoughts and prayers are with your family. I love you buddy.

Dear Greg, Laura and Family,
ReplyDeleteI am so sorry for your loss of a dear brother and son. What a beautiful tribute to a young man who was such a special light in your lives. My thoughts are with you during this difficult time.
Sincerely,
Kelsey Lewis
Kent was one of my best friends. I will never forget the memories of growing up with him when we were in elementary and middle school. The cool kids club he helped create. Jumping off the roof onto the trampoline. The sleep overs while watching movies. Building snow caves. The basketball games and how Kent could always take the 3 pointer. We always played games like Smash Bros on the nintendo 64 and axis and allies board game, risk and 007. Kent was always kind, fun, loving, and energetic. I always saw him as loyal to his family as if it was the most important thing to him. I hope that he is with his dad and that he can now be a guardian angel for his family whom he loved so much.

Renee and family,
ReplyDeleteWe were so sorry to hear of the death of your son. Life has a way of making us stop and think many times. It is a blessing to have the gospel and to know that the Lord is in charge and that he is ok. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
Love, Delbert & Julie Merkley
Kent, I can honestly say i enjoyed the past 2 years knowing you and working with you. Every time you came into work you will always eager to greet me and talk to me about life. I will most definitely miss that and thank you for always making work better. You were a very loyal person and i enjoyed being in your presents. Hope to talk to you one day again kent!!!
ReplyDeleteR.I.P BUDDY!!

Kent Farley was a quiet but pleasant presence in the back corner, near the door, in my algebra class this semester. He was at once striking and no-fuss: I think he mostly taught himself. I would like to have seen what he could have done with what he learned.
ReplyDeleteDarn.

Dear Kent,
ReplyDeleteYou were probably my favorite assistant manager's. I loved listening to all your awesome thoughts and stories. You had the coolest ways to pass time and when I found out you had passed away I was shocked. I still can barely believe it was reality. You've been such a great person to me and I hope to see you sometime later!

ReplyDeleteSadly, I only known you for a few short months, but I enjoyed all of it! I'm so glad I got to meet you! Thank you for training me! I loved all our talks and learning all the random interesting facts you had to share. I'll even miss hearing your stupid ringtone. It was just one random noise among many, but it will be different not hearing it. The weekend will never really fell like its the weekend, because your not there. Can't wait to see you again someday!! Thanks for being a great person, teacher, and friend!

ReplyDeleteI am so sorry for the loss of Kent. The picture on this page with him, Carrie and Kurt is just how I remember Kent. Those boys were always playing outside and running between your house, the Andersons and the Bolens. Lots of memories of you guys in Springville. Kent is with his Dad now - watching over you. I pray you will have peace and comfort at this time in your life and thank goodness for the gospel plan.
Love,
DeAnne Anderson
Kent,
ReplyDeleteI am so grateful that I had the pleasure of knowing you for the last 7 years.I am glad that we were able to hang out with you a few times that week! I enjoyed hanging out and watching you and Casey together. I remember one day during the summer when I spent the day putting Highlights in yours, casey and matt's hair. I loved being around you and Casey because there was always laughter involved. You always cared to know how we were doing. You hold a special place in my familys heart. You were another brother to me.I loved having two little big brothers! I know you are ok and happy. I miss you and I know Casey misses you like crazy. You made a difference in his life. He loves you so very much as does the rest of our family! I know you are up there watching over everyone and getting to be with your dad! To your family, I am so sorry for your loss. I am so glad that I knew Kent. He truely was an amazing caring person. You all are in my thoughts and prays and I pray you find peace and comfort.
Love you Buddy!!

Kent,
ReplyDeleteI only had the privilege of getting to know you through WoW, but I feel I have formed some strong friendships through that game. I believe you get to see a side of people that not everyone gets to see. A lot of people let the bad sides of them come out when they can hide behind some pixels... This was NEVER the case with you. You were always nice to everyone and as helpful as you could be. Even on the nights that were full of wipefests, lol!
DoD was very lucky to have not only have had you as a member, but as one of our key members. The guild has suffered a major loss now that you are gone, but that is nothing compared to what your friends, family and the world has lost. You were a great guy and I will truly miss you.
To his family, I wish you all the sympathy and condolences that a person can give and pray that you all manage to make it through this time of sadness and loss.

Kent,
ReplyDeleteYou came into my life when I was truly in a great storm, it didn't take long for you to bring the sun back into my world. You were the only person who could bring a smile to my face every day no matter the circumstances. Such joy I will deeply miss...
I remember a real adventure when you took me on my first long boarding trip down Provo Canyon. I was so afraid of breaking an arm, leg, or even a collar bone that you kindly slowed my board down whenever I couldn't handle the speed. You also taught me the basics well, stressing how I step off the board if I wish to stop without falling. However, in panic I failed miserably at your instructions and to my embarrassment ripped my jeans. Thanks again for having a hoodie to hide my shame. Looking back now it was a great day full of many laughs.
I thank you for every moment we had together, from you giving me tips in pool to eating popcorn while watching a movie. I will remember every sweet word exchanged, laugh shared, and tear shed. I will cherish out intimate moments of openness where we spoke of our fears, goals, joys, and sorrows.
I let you into my life just as easy as you let me into yours and gave me the chance to meet and be a part of your amazing family. Thank you.
After how close we were it's hard to think back to the first day we met, both too intimidated to say hi to the other. I am thankful we got past that and for what you have done for me.
And yet...no matter how I try all these words wont describe exactly what you were to me. You were home...and I felt such great comfort in every smile, embrace, and kiss. My heart acks for that feeling now...
You were taken too soon, but for what time I did have with you I'm glad I could call you friend, Mr Blue Eyes, babe...mine.
I will always love you.
Your Mariposa
I'm grateful to have a place to send my own small tribute. I mostly knew Kent when he was a young kid. I was often the designated babysitter when we visited. Kent was my favorite to babysit. He was easy to please, kind, happy, and helpful. One thing that amazed me was his ability to handle all that Greg could deal out(no offense Greg). Greg could throw a truck at Kents head and Kent would still go back and play with him as soon as he stopped crying.
ReplyDeleteI look forward to the time after this life when all the "why's" will be answered but I know God has a plan for each of us and that He will help us. I know Kents' life is not over, it has just continued in a different place.
I have and will continue to pray for you and Kent that you may all grow closer to our Savior and Father in Heaven and find peace through the Atonement.
Much Love,
Angela
