I have been around the Jenkins since I was about 14years old that's over 26 years, somehow I think that makes me family.Junie was a big brother to me for many years. He always treated me as if I were family, laughed at me, with me and even gave me great words of wisdom. I have shared much with this family and we will always have a special bond. Junie will never be forgotten my daughter(De'Azia) holds dear the memory of man in the "Bill Cosby" sweaters. I treasure the memory of a big brother...

Dear Uncle Money!
The first time I met you at Gloria's you had this great big smile and thats what I remember. My daughters loved your smile and felt safe around you. I remember them coming home and saying Ma you have to meet Uncle Money. That was something for Toccara and Shekinah especially with Shekinah. You gave them fear and you showed them love like they were one of the family. You always told me I looked like one of the family.
Well Uncle Money you are really worth your name....

Junie,
I have tried to leave this entry three times and it never makes it to the book so maybe it is some things that I shouldn't put in here even though I haven't figured it out yet.
I just wanted to let you know one final time that I truly miss and love you soooooooo much. You were more than just my big brother, you were my father figure for the past thirteen years and I thank you for that. You were my boss at One Construction, you were my instructor in so many of my life's...

Junie,
As I look on the temple you were given, I can still feel the radiance of love you present. No one can take that from you. When I look at you I see Daddy. I see a man that has traveled down life's highway; sometimes asking for directions; asking God for strength and endurance. I know that the road has not been easy. I know there has been traps and snares. There has been suffering but there has been joy and happiness there also. Now you have reached your destination, heaven, I pray,...

Uncle Money, I can't believe that you have been gone from us for a month! I am glad that we got the opportunity to get to know each other before GOD called you home. I thought that I would be the only one in the family calling everyone just to tell them that I loved them. The day you called me out the blue to tell me that you were thinking about me and that you loved me really made my day! I will always cherish that! I know at first I sounded dry but I thought you were calling me because...

To Real Baby Wolf,
You have really been an example of what a "real" family man is suppose to be. I realize why you and my father remained friends for so long. You were so full of life that even after death your life still lingers here with us. Know that I will pattern myself after you and my father for years to come.

Love You,
Rico (Baby Wolf the 2nd)

To My Oldest Son,
You hold a special spot in my heart. I can never thank you for all that you have done for me, you went beyond the call of duty and I love you for that. Tell J.C, Bobby and Madelyn that I love them and miss them so.

To my "Uncle Pa - Pa"
You told my granny when I was born that I would NEVER have to worry about a father figure because I had my "Pa - Pa" and My "Uncle Pa - Pa" I may be only two but you have imparted so much into me and I know That I will never forget you because you are with me even now. UH Huh! ( That's our little thing) Please continue to watch over me and I know you have told my Big Pa - Pa and My Uncle Bobby all about me!... They Love me? Don't They? :)
