Chris was always a gentleman and such a patience person when the YaYa's were coming over for a night of fun and talking. We would tell stories, even Pamper Chef parties he would be there having fun with us. Chris will be forever remembered as a wonderful human being to all. Love Pam & Blair

I have had the pleasure of working with Chris after our first encounter at the PGA Show in Orlando. For many years Chris and JC Golf have been and are a trusted and great performing distributor of our products. Since our first meeting our yearly meeting at the PGA show has always been something to look out for. Besides business the conversations were always full of family, travel plans, and hobby related stories. It was great knowing Chris. Bart Fokke/Pitchfix

So sorry to hear this news. I knew Chris's dad, Bart very well, and though Chris was not as flamboyant as Bart, he had a quiet strength and intellect that really impressed me. My sympathies to his family.

I first meet Chris in 2004 at Maroon Creek club. I walked into the van with all of the Golf accessories. We proceeded to talk for almost 2 hours about family, places and friends. Chris had a great smile and way of connecting with people. RIP my friend and condolences to the Jenkins family.

I was an Evan Scholar in Boulder with Chris in the mid-70's. We played on the same intermural basketball team, and he was a brutal power forward! JC provided many of our core golf accessory products for my 37 years in the golf industry. I never heard Chris say a bad word about anyone. He will be missed!

Always a pleasure to see Chris over the years. Never a salesman, always a visit. Great to hear stories of vacations and families. Condolences to all his family and friends. He was a great man!

I was at Cheyenne Mountain High School with Chris. We played football and basketball together and shared many of the same classes. Chris was a friend, a great athlete, and a terrific student. Very sorry to hear about his passing.

Chris was a good friend, but mostly a mentor. He taught me how to drive a semi truck, and from watching him I learned to study more, eat better, and work harder. I´m not alone as I know many of my Evans Scholars buddies took the same lessons. RIP, Smokey.

This is such a beautiful tribute to one of the kindest, gentle souls I´ve ever met. My sweet yaya will be lost without her soulmate by her side but all of us who love her, Katie, Danni and the littles will always be here with love and hugs. You will be very much missed Chris. Love. Cec

I remember Shirley´s first date with Chris.
We knew right away HE was the one!!
Over the years, he only got better and more wonderful. I loved how he would look you directly in the eye and listen intently. He was a unique and very special man. My heart is full of love and grief for his dearest family. May he rest in peace. Love you all.

Chris and Greg, my husband, were brothers who had a loving relationship and created and grew a golf business that they were so proud of! Both had lovely manners thanks to their mother Mary Helen. I feel so lucky to have been a part of the Jenkins family.
