KENT ANDREW OFSTEDAHL
May 30th, 1976 – March 21st, 2023
Kent Andrew Ofstedahl aged 46 years of Moose Jaw, SK, passed away Tuesday, March 21st, 2023.
Kent was born in Moose Jaw, SK on May 30th, 1976 to Donna (deceased) and Vernon “Pog” Ofstedahl. He attended Westmount Elementary School from K-6 and Empire Elementary School from grades 6-8. He then went to Riverview Collegiate where he was a great football player, and an amazing friend to many.
Throughout his childhood Kent enjoyed all sports and adventuring around his South Hill stomping grounds with his many, many good friends. All of his friends knew of his love of the Beastie Boys and would consider him a true “Hip Hop Head”.
Kent made many friends over the years. Throughout the entirety of his life, he was an avid musician. He was a part of many bands and loved performing. His music was even featured on Much Music. He created over 8 albums with his son. He was a true mc and enjoyed all music. In his later years Kent spent many hours golfing, both on the course and at the Sweet Spot Simulator in Moose Jaw. His love for golf extended into his career as he worked in the warehouse at Sweet Spot, where his co-workers became his family.
Kent was known for his free spirit, loyalty, and desire to live life in his own way. He questioned everything and stood by his beliefs. He loved a good debate or deep discussion on any topic he felt passionately about. Everyone who crossed paths with Kent loved him and would share a good laugh.
Kent is survived by his pride and joy – his children: Kyril (Brittany) and Katelynn; his children’s mother, Kuelynn; sister, Andrea (Shawn); niece, Tessa; and his many aunts, uncles, cousins and friends who all loved him very much. His first grandchild was set to arrive in a few weeks.
A Celebration of Kent’s Life will be held on Friday, March 31st, 2023 at 1:00 p.m. at the Eagles Club, 561 Home St W, Moose Jaw, SK. As an expression of sympathy, donations in Kent’s name may be made to The Moose Jaw Humane Society, Box 1658 Station Main, Moose Jaw, SK S6H 7K7. Arrangements are entrusted to Moose Jaw Funeral Home, 268 Mulberry Lane. Gary McDowell, Funeral Director 306-693-4550

My deepest heartfelt condolences to you, Pog. All the family and beyond will mourn this horrible loss.
My prayers go out to all Kent’s family. How utterly sad for you all.
My family, (Heide, Roger and Angie Schwarz) offers our condolences to the entire Family. Many years ago we were neighbors – and friends – growing up together on Coteau St. Although we did not have the pleasure of knowing Kent, if he is like the rest of the Ofstedahl Family he had a beautiful personality larger than life and a love and respect for people that is everlasting. May God Bless him as he enters the realm of life everlasting and may the wind take his music as far as it can go for others to enjoy! May his Family find comfort in knowing how loved he was by many and may his spirit breathe new life into us all to be not just ordinary – but uniquely our best “one of a kind” – as he was!
Our deepest sympathy to Vern and all of Kent’s family at this very sad time. We are thinking of you all.
Kent and my brother (along with other friends)used to listen to the Beastie Boys and Rage against the machine and play hacky sac in our family driveway. He was always very kind. My deepest condolences to family and friends at this useless loss.
We would like to send our sincere condolences to Kent’s family and friends. May you find comfort, support and love through this heartbreaking time.

Dear Pog, Andrea & family, Kent’s family, Kent’s friends and all our shared friends:
I was saddened and heartbroken to hear of Kent’s passing. Memories flooded my mind of all our years as friends.
When I think of Kent, I remember him as always having a smile on his face, being full of energy (running and jumping down the halls of Empire & RVCI!) and his infectious, one-of-a-kind laugh.
Kent was always the life of the party. Introducing many of us to the Beastie Boys and the Red Hot Chili Peppers. Pog and Donna were always welcoming to all of us.
My thoughts are with all of you today as you say goodbye to your son, brother, father, uncle, coworker and friend. I wish I could be with you all.
Kent, thank you for all the wonderful memories. Your laughter will ring through the streets of South Hill forever.
