Dr. Jenkins was a wonderful doctor and a good man. He was a great listener and calmed me many times over the years--especially when it came to the care of my children.

He will be missed.

Dear Ditto and Family,

Doug was one of the kindest and warmest friends and doctor I have ever known. There are so many fond memories of him, you and our families and friends in Dillon.



May your darkest days be brightened by the many wonderful years you shared with him and may God bless and strengthen all of you at this time.

As A child, I remember Dr. Jenkins in church@ St Barnabas, listening to him as he participating in the services as a layreader. He was so wonderful. My mother loved him as a friend and a great doctor, which just a few months ago was complaining as she had to see another doctor and did not receive the kindness and care that Doug always gave. He will be missed by all.
