It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of John Jenkins. John was born on May 2, 1971 and passed away on January 8, 2025. He was a reserved individual, someone who mostly kept to himself, but anyone who had the privilege of getting close to him understood the depth of his character.

Though he may have been quiet, his life wasn't lived in silence. John achieved significant milestones in his lifetime, with the most noteworthy being his beloved daughter. A cherished part of his life, she grew up shadowed by the deep love of her father and is a living testament to his nurturing nature.

His legacy, which he instilled in his daughter and anyone he interacted with, was the audacious principle of being oneself. John exemplified this belief, and in doing so, taught others the value of authenticity, the power of individuality and the importance of staying true to oneself.

John is survived by his brother, Ann Jenkins. They, along with the rest of his family and friends, mourn his loss but celebrate his life and the lasting impact it had. His unique perspective and the life he led are a testament to his spirit, and he will indeed be sorely missed.

Rest in peace, John. Your memory will live on in the hearts of those who knew and loved you.
