My deepest sympathies to the Jenkins Family. David was a sweet and kind friend during those St. Mary's and Lorain Catholic days. His smile, sense of humor and lonf telephone conversations are the memories I keep. Rest easy old friend.

Dear Jenkins Family,
I was saddened to hear from Tom of David's passing. I will always remember David's wonderful smile and his kindness to me and my family. David, the optomist, possesed a great ability to look forward. He always believed that the next great opportunity exsisted just around the corner. I hope and pray he finds peace and comfort in his eternal life.
Warmest regards,
Sara Jenkins
Dear Jenkins Family,
We were very sad to hear of David's passing. I would run into David from time to time and it was always good to talk with him for a few minutes. Sometimes he looked better than others but he didn't really dwell on his problems he was always more interested in hearing how someone else was doing or who I'd seen lately. I just spoke with him again a couple weeks ago, at a bank, he was making arrangements to help another friend. I walked away feeling sad because I could tell he wasn't feeling all that well, but also heart-warmed because here was a guy not doing so well himself, but instead of feeling sorry for himself was setting about to help someone else.
May he rest in peace comfortably in Our Lords Hands.
To the Jenkin's Family - My deepest sympathy to all of you. I went to high school with Dave and in future year's, he would stop at the bowling center and have a cup of coffee, while he was on his meter reading route. I ran into him several weeks ago and he was so upbeat on getting better. As always, he would never dwell on his illness, just asked about everyone in my family. Dave will be deeply missed - he was a wonderful, kind person. He suffers no more, may he rest in peace.
To the family of David Jenkins,
We are sorry to hear of David's death. May the good memories of Dave and the strength of your family comfort you through this difficult time.

David was a good guy and a friend to many and Shelly and I will always cherish his friendship and the memories from the days we all played football at Wartburg College in Iowa. He could always be counted on and he always had your back. Rest in peace. JBurke
Dear Kay---so sorry to hear about your loss. Please know we will keep you and your family in our thoughts and prayers. Sincerely, Christine and Jim Koba
Dear Joe, Kay, Tom, Karen, "Boomer" and Jane Ann:
Sincere condolences on your loss of David. I have so MANY fond memories of baby sitting for David and the rest of you "kids" so many years ago. Rich and I have run into Dave several times through the years and he always hadhis big smile, and gave me a hug and kiss. When I worked at the front desk in human resources at Lorain Products, Dave would stop by every month or so to "test" our water for the City of Lorain Utilities Dept and we would always chat for a few minutes.. He kept me up to date on the family and where everyone was living.
You were "my family" for many years and I shall neer forget any of you! My mom passed away seven years ago at the age of 90. Rich and I celebrated our 40th wedding anniversary last year and Jason is married (almost 12 years) to a wonderful girl, Valerie - but no grandchildren - just two grand dogs (Chocolate Labs - Archie and Emma).
The old neighborhood on Iowa Avenue just isn't the same and I haven't been past my mom's house since she died.
I shall miss seeing Dave around Lorain, but know that he is in a better place and at peace with God.
Love to each of you, and know that I think of you often.
