Paying tribute to Kent Thayer

Kent William Thayer
09.08.1961 - 09.17.2019

On September 17, 2019, we suddenly and tragically lost our beloved coworker/employee & friend, Kent Thayer.

With all of the emotional pain and stress that death brings, it also brings financial burdens.  It is with heavy hearts that we reach out to his coworkers & loved ones in hopes of raising funds for Kent's family to assist with easing the financial burden.  (All funds donated will be provided directly to his family.)

In this time of sadness, we hope to provide a sense of love, comfort, and support to his family - and appreciate your support, ahead of time, for any contribution you are able to make.

Please plan on *WEARING RED* to the services to celebrate Kent's life:
