Mr. Jenkins was born in Baltimore, Maryland on December 17, 1962, to the late Thomas Douglas Jenkins, Sr. and Betty Joy Fast. At a young age, he was relocated to Des Moines, Iowa where he remained until the age of 18 at which point he enlisted in the United States Air Force.
Tom was a one-of-a-kind personality who left an impression on every person he crossed paths with. He was an avid music fan, muscle car lover, and sports enthusiast, often a member of various recreational athletic leagues throughout his adult life. Of all of his hobbies, his favorite past-time was always bowling, belonging to leagues in both Dacula and Lawrenceville. He will endearingly be remembered as an athlete, comic relief, and mischief maker.
He was preceded in death by his parents, Stepmother, Elizabeth Jenkins, and his sister, Crystal Coe.
He is survived by his wife, Eva Jenkins; son, Ryan Jenkins (Erika); daughter, Michelle Jenkins Hardeman (Mason); sister, Michelle Jenkins; and his four grandchildren, Cameron, Cash, Ellie and Maddox.

Tom and family were neighbors of ours years ago in S. Des Moines, Iowa. We all socialized a few times and it was always a good time. I recall Tom as a hard, dedicated worker that raised two exceptional children.
Our heartfelt condolences to Tom´s entire family. May he rest in peace.
