R.I.P. Kit Horn
Kit Horn passed away on 3/26/2010 at age 80. He was a true stoked surfer and a gentleman and an inspiration to all. I learned to surf in front of his house and it will be odd not to see him out surfing or out around the neighborhood. There is a memorial post dedicated to him on the Surfer Mag.com message board started by my Dad, Peter St Pierre picture above with Kit in 2009, click here to view.

April 1, 2010I’ve known Kit for over 50 years. He was a gentle giant who had a kind word for everyone and was as surf stoked in his last years as he was in the 1940s.
