To the Jenkins Family,

We extend to you our deepest sympathy in this your time of sadness. We will be eternally grateful for the divine work that Rev. Jenkins rendered to us during his time of pastorate at Greater St. John.

Take comfort in knowing for a child of God..."to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord." He is at rest in his eternal home.

May God's peace be with each of you til you meet him again!

Death, be not proud

Death, be not proud, though some have called thee
Mighty and dreadful, for thou art not so;
For those whom thou think'st thou dost overthrow
Die not, poor Death, nor yet canst thou kill me.
From rest and sleep, which but thy pictures be,
Much pleasure; then from thee much more must flow,
And soonest our best men with thee do go,
Rest of their bones, and soul's delivery.
Thou art slave to fate, chance, kings, and desperate men,
And dost with poison, war, and sickness dwell,
And poppy or charms can make us sleep as well
And better than thy stroke; why swell'st thou then?
One short sleep past, we wake eternally
And death shall be no more; Death, thou shalt die.

To Ellen, Donna, Dee and family,
Earth has no sorrow that Heaven can not heal. Whenever you met Rodney, he had that smile that made your day better than it was. Always the same way when you met him. He fought a good fight and kept the Faith. Know that he is resting n the arms of the Lord. Cherish and hold on to the memories...... WEEPING ENDURETH FOR A NIGHT BUT JOY COMETH IN THE MORNING.
