Mat God continue to bless the family of John-Paul Jenkins, he was a great classmate of mine when we both attended Pratt Community College back in the day on a basketball scholarship. He was very encouraging to me as a basketball player on the team. A true friend he was for sure.

To Paul's wife and family God bless you always. I very often go back in time and think of Paul and playing in Kansas City on the Pratt Community College basketball team. He was a super teammate and played the game of basketball to perfection. I couldn't have asked for a better teammate to play with.

I knew Paul from 1974-1976, when he was at WSU. He was a good influence. He believed in exercise and healthy eating. I have wonderfilled memories and loved him alot

I still often think of Paul when I reflect back on our days at Pratt Community College in Pratt Kansas. We played together on the basketball team and he was always encouraging me to do my best. God bless the Jenkins family.

Still remember Paul from my days in Pratt Kansas where we both attended college and played basketball. A very encouraging person he was and always positive. God continue to bless his family.

Great teammate when we played together at Pratt Community College in Pratt, KS. Memories I will have for a life time, Paul encouraged me to play hard and not give up which made my increased my confidence in my basketball ability. GOD bless Paul's family, he was a wonderful person.

I was just thinking about Paul the other day and had a phone conversation with one of our teammates Thurman Couch from North Carolina. I was totally shocked by his death even though we haven't been in contact since our Junior College days at Pratt Community Junior College where we both played basketball on a scholarship and built a special bond seeing we were from Hartford, Ct. God bless the family and you will be in my prayers.

Dear Big Brother,
I miss you so much.
Love you always,
Baby Sis.
