Therese A. Kent
1926 – 2016
We sadly announce the passing of Therese Ann (Quinn) Kent, 89, of Montville on February 29, 2016. Therese was born in Norwich on May 24, 1926 to Kathryn A. (Sullivan) and James S. Quinn.
She attended St. Mary’s Grammar School, Norwich Free Academy, and Bryant College. Therese worked various office jobs in Hartford and Norwich and retired after many years as Supply Clerk at the Groton Submarine Base.
Therese Ann was the beloved matriarch of the Quinn family and the last of her generation. She was able to share her family knowledge and memories until her passing.
She was preceded in death by her siblings, Mae Ryley, James Quinn, John Quinn, Edward Quinn, Eileen Robertson, Charles Quinn, Kathleen Belli, and their spouses. Therese survived the heartbreak of losing two sons, Robert Oliver Kent and Charles Quinn Kent, and ultimately her husband of 63 years, Oliver F. Kent.
Survivors are Margaret Kent and her husband Donald Thimble of Block Island and many supportive and caring nieces and nephews.
