Jim JENKINS Obituary
Jim Jenkins died early Tuesday morning, May 5, 2015, along with his best friend, Bo. Our hearts are broken because we no longer have him with us, but our hearts are happy that he is no longer suffering. He is survived by his daughters, Haley Lynn Jenkins and Lisa Jo Harrison, his granddaughters, Ella Jo and Erin Marie, his sister, Debra J. Corbell, and brother, David Jenkins, many nieces, nephews, grandnieces and grandnephews, and his second family - all of the Wileys. He is predeceased by his mother, Amydelle Tanner Jenkins, his father, Charles W. Jenkins, and his sister, Rebecca Jenkins. There will be a celebration of Jimbo at Burr Field at a later date. "Please don't be sad. The really good part is happening for Jimbo now."
