Thought and Prayers to Kent’s family.
Kathy and Corey Lesmeister
My sincere condolences to all of you girls. We all grew up together only 3 miles apart. Even though Kent was older than me, we connected later in our years and enjoyed telling stories about “the good ole days “ back in Birtsell. He was always so kind to me and always spoke highly of his family. Cherish your memories.
My thoughts and prayers go out to all of Kent’s family. I have known Kent since high school in Carrington and he married my younger sister, Jewel. After their divorce, Kent and I continued to communicate. I got together with Kent last summer while I was visiting Carrington. I will miss not visiting with him. May God bless his family and friends.
I am deeply saddened by Kent’s passing. Kent was truly a second father to me. I spent every summer as a child on the ranch in Carrington with Kent and Jewel, some of the best memories of my life. Not only were there so many great times, there were many, many life lessons. Despite great distance and time passing Kent always found time to call me and keep in touch. I am grateful to have had him in my life, he will be missed. My condolences to his sisters and all of his family. Please know
You are in our prayers and sorry I will miss his services. I will be there in spirit
My condolences to Kent’s family. Kent and I were in the cattle business and many years ago Kent would buy cattle for us in North Dakota. He would always get in touch when he came to Bozeman. A good man with a big smile.
Nadine and family, so sorry for your loss. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
Kent was a good friend of our family. He was our North Dakota connection when it came to Weather and Bridger Anderson success we stopped often at the little campground in Sykeston had a great time. We will miss him dearly a fine gentleman.
I have great memories of staying with Kent and Jewel during the summers when I was young. I learned how to do many things on the farm and I appreciate the time he took to teach me. Rest in Peace Kent.
