Langham Creek High School and our community lost a true friend this weekend. Mark Jenkins, husband of Felicia Jenkins and father of Regan (sophomore at LCHS), Max (WestPoint) and Ross Jenkins (Louisiana Tech), died suddenly this weekend of an apparent stroke.
Mark had many accomplishments, but some of the ones most of you would recognize are the many contributions he made to Langham Creek. Mark was a founding member of PACK and helped establish it’s existence. Mark was Langham Creek Athletic Booster Club President for two years and was involved or a fan of most every sport at Langham. Mark was Langham Creek’s 7 on 7 summer football coach for many years. He was Langham Creek’s summer baseball coach for many years. He was a contributor to Project Prom and Langham Creek Volleyball He and Felicia had season tickets to the LCHS Football games and tried never to miss a game. Most recently, he could be seen as a line judge at Project Prom’s King of the Court, though his daughter will not graduate for two more years.
We will miss Mark. To those of you who knew him, I am quite sure like us, you were blessed to know him. Our hearts and prayers go out to the entire Jenkins family and I know we will surround this family with our love over the next most difficult months ahead while they adjust to life without Mark.
MARK JENKINS TRIBUTE
Mark has touched so many lives in our community. We all have our favorite memories of Mark and have stories both funny and touching to share. As a special tribute to Mark, we would like to collect those stories and document them in a memory book for Felicia, Ross, Max and Regan. So if you have a favorite story or memory you would like to share with the family, please write it in an email and send it to
raadrian@sbcglobal.net (Alice Adrian) or
nllza@aol.com (Lesa Azra). Please put Favorite Memories of Mark Jenkins as the subject so that we can easily identify those emails. Also please include your name at the bottom of the email so the family will know who is contributing the story. We will copy each story onto a special format and put them in the memory book. In addition, if you have a photo you would like to add to the book, you can drop it off or mail it to Alice Adrian at 17206 Crescent Canyon in Copper Lakes. (There will be a plastic container by the front door for photos to be dropped off.) Please do not send photos via email. We would love to get stories from both adults and children who have known Mark as a friend, coach, mentor, etc. Please send by March 31st.
God bless the Jenkins Family
Lesa Azra and Alice Adrian
