I'm sorry to hear that. Back in the early 70's, I dabbled a bit with "Larsen's Opening", and found it interesting.
I also recall Bent writing a column for "Canadian Chess Chat", when it was edited by Walter Dobrich. He had a refreshing, if somewhat offbeat, writing style. Perhaps the same could be said of his playing style for that matter.
He'll be missed.

The greatest Chess Club ever has added a couple new members.
Someone said that Fischer just glanced up as the new members signed in and he said, 'A couple more patzers...''
