Personal Side
Kent was born and raised here in Lincoln, Nebraska. He lived outside of Lincoln near Pleasant Dale but attended Lincoln Pius X for high school. Kent says that the reason he decided to stay living in Lincoln was because of the quality of life in Nebraska. When Kent is not at the law firm, he enjoys cycling, and hunting with his labrador, Rosie Endacott. He also enjoys golfing, gardening, reading, and cooking. Kent lives by the Husker prayer “Day by day, we get better and better.”
The practice of law is a tradition in Kent’s family. Kent’s father practiced law in Lincoln, Nebraska for almost 50 years and his two uncles were attorneys, one of whom, Donald Endacott, was a long-time District Court Judge.
