Absolon Kent

Today is full of so many memories. Memories of happiness, tears, and endless joy. Memories that my mother, Patricia Kent, brought to me and the people around her. Thinking about her life, I am grateful for all the great things she did to care for me and those memories still bring warmth to my heart. Although she is not here today with us in her physical body, I hope that she can see the legacy she left here on Earth and she is proud of us all.

Momma: While I celebrate your birthday today, know that as you rest in heaven, I’ll spend the day on Earth missing you.

I am Absolon, the son of Patrica, the daughter of Amanda, the daughter of Mary.

I was blessed with a mother whose kindness and compassion were the examples set before me in my youth. A mother whose joyful presence and warmth turned our house into a home full of life and love. She persistently prayed for me and her unwavering support is the foundation that I stand in every season of my life.

Although she is no longer with me here today, I honor her and her mothers today on Mother's Day because I am a husband and a father today because of them.

Momma,

Happy Mother's Day in Heaven.

Love Your Son,

Al

ANNANDALE, Va. — Taking the time to enjoy the small moments in life. #PorchLife #StayHome
