Jenkins Street "Jenks" Crayton Jr.

I worked with Jenks while he served as the Guilford County tax director (later also child support director) and I was the county attorney. Jenks had a true talent for systems and organizations, and did a superior job performing these often thankless tasks. Jenks had a quick wit, and was kind, cordial, and considerate. He will be missed.

We were shocked this morning to read about Jenks' death in the News. I was fond of him at Furman, and he was an usher when I married. So many memories of being with him and Katherine at Greensboro, of rallying together at Greenville, and of visiting the house at Lake Summit. We hope to come to Columbia on Friday, but please know, Betty and Vic, how much your son meant to us. Judy

I had the privilege of working with Jenks at Guilford County. I will always think of him as a dear friend.
Thoughts and prayers are with you through this difficult time.

I was saddened to read Jenks' obituary this a.m. As a young teenager, I was Jenks' and Bill's babysitter in Charleston. Jenks was a sweet, charming little guy, whom I loved dearly. The Crayton family was,and is still, one of my favorite families. Love to Betty and Bill.

Sorry to hear this.Prayers to family and friends.
