We honor the life and legacy of Brother Kent Crenshaw, a distinguished Alpha Phi Alpha man, a respected disability leader, and my fellow Rolling Brother.

To The Crenshaw Family, Writ Large:
On behalf of late Mrs. Dora Terry Hunter's Family, I want to express my profound sadness at Chug's passing.
During my childhood in Highland Village, Chug was a robust physical presence. Although he lost that physical presence, and despite being confined to a wheelchair, his spirit remained indomitable. As we all mourn Chug's passing, allow me to encourage you to celebrate his eternal life with God.
My prayer for the entire Crenshaw Family is that you know God's everlasting arms still rest beneath you.
Regards,
Eric Hunter, EDS, MS, PC, NCC
