KENT, John Of Whangarei, (formerly of Rotorua and Tauranga). Son of the late Gordon and Enid. Brother of Marjorie (Tauranga) and the late Stan. Uncle of Jenny, Sue, Robert, Sharon, Debbie and Greg. When you read this I will have "karked it". I have requested that there be no celebration of my life, I did plenty of celebrating when I was on this planet!
