There is a void that will forever be, but we have the light of his life, his song and his laughter to help us to remember our journey with him as friend, father, brother husband, grandpa and son. What an awesome journey we've shared.

To the Jenkins Family:

My heart is heavy that a link is gone from our family chain. I will remember Tim in his younger years when we all used to get together and laugh and have fun as a family. Please know that weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning. Psalm 30:5. We know that God's word tells us that we will see him again. What a day of rejoicing that will be! Right now, he sleeps with the rest of our anscestors. I will continue to say prayers of comfort for you and the rest of our family.

I love you all.

Tim was a wonderfully good man who loved his children and family deeply. He had a tremendous capacity to love and led his life based on strong moral values. He was a renaissance man in that he loved poetry, music, philosophy and the sciences. His children came first in his life and he led his life as a model of how a good and honest man lives. His devotion to his relationship with both Kenny and Tony knew no bounds. His work ethic was impeccable. He sacrificed much in this life so that "his" would be cared for and not go without necessities. He had a tender heart and sang beautifully. All who knew and loved him will miss him tremendously.
