I just received a very sad phone call from a good friend who informed me that we have lost another great XJ man. He was known as Lion.

You will be missed by many my friend!

oh NO!!! Lion (Kent) was a great guy! I wheeled with him in Moab and last saw him at Fiesta Island for SocalXJ. He was a former Chicagoan and a hardcore Cubs fan. I will miss him dearly. hope he's drinking a budweiser with Harry Caray now.

Anyone know his funeral services date and location?

I met him in Moab several years ago and my wife and I had the pleasure of having supper with with him at a Mexican food place. He was an individual.

Sad to hear of his passing.
 
Damn, can't believe it. :tear:

It's odd. Literally ten minutes ago, I was thinking about Mike O, who we lost two years ago. And now this.

Kent's posts were always a fun read because you never knew what he was talking about. :)

But he will be missed.
 
man what a nice guy he was. i met him at socal fest last year, he brought me a beer i had never heard of at 6am and told me to pop it open and join him in a drink :D

:cheers: heres one for you Kent, drink up.
 
If you ever met Lion you would never forget him.God Bless Sir Lion.
 
he took great pictures of my family at Fiesta Island. Here's some pics of him:

ya know out of all of the socal folks my wife has met Lion is the only one I didnt have to remind her of who he is, when I told her the news she immediatly cried. I cant say we knew him well but damnit we were blessed to have known him.
