Ginger Jenkins

Smithville-Ginger Noe Jenkins, 44, passed away on February 2, 2026. Born on July 19, 1981, Ginger lived fiercely for the people she loved, giving her whole heart to her family.

She is survived by her husband, Kenny Jenkins of Smithville; her father, Thomas Noe Sr.; her siblings, Thomas Noe Jr. and Crystal Noe, both of Smithville, Mississippi; her children, Austin Noe, Katelyn Walker, and Harley Walker; her beloved grandchildren, John Walker, Raiden Millstead, and Ocean Hampton, who were truly the light of her life; and a host of nieces and nephews. She was preceded in death by her mother, Marilyn Noe.

Ginger had a rare kind of heart-the kind that would drop everything for the people she loved. Her family always came first, no matter the circumstance. She loved deeply, protected fiercely, and stood strong for those in her world. Her fur babies, Buddy and Runtz, were never far from her side and brought her constant comfort and joy.
