Remembering Jerry Kent - May you rest in peace. Jerry Kent was a treasure. His passing leaves an irreplaceable void in the Claremont Canyon Conservancy. He was not only a font of knowledge about the canyon, its history and the wildfire issue, but he was able to share his knowledge with anyone and everyone who wanted to know. We were so fortunate to have him with us for many great years. He will live on in our memories and in our hearts for years to come. Read more about Jerry Kent here.
