My pain is not unique. I’ll be the first to tell you that.
I’m not the first person in the world to lose a father. I won’t be the last. It’s part of life. However, I’d be lying if I said that as each day passes, I miss my father more than the last.
My father was one of those men whose friends always wanted to be around him. His charismatic, positive personality was something I always wanted to emulate. His love towards my mother, ( ROSIE JENKINS)always warmed my heart, and the love for his children — was one that I, along with my siblings, held near.
My dad was philanthropic. He was admirable and loveable. He worked hard. He laughed even harder. In the end – I had a great father. I learned so much in from him. I won; we won, because we had such a wonderful person to surround ourselves with, who loved us unconditionally. We were fortunate to have such a presence in our lives.
As I look back at that little thing called perspective – there are five things I wish I had told my father.
I love you. The most powerful words in the world. It sounds so simple. We don’t tell the people around us how much they mean to us. When it’s too late – we only hope we did more often. Dad, I love you.
Thank you. I’d tell my father “thank you.” Gratitude is something we take for granted. People will go out of their way for us, but we forget to say “thanks.” I’d tell my father “thank you” for the time he spent with me, the lessons he taught me, and the love he showed me.
I’m proud of you. It may sound strange coming from a daughter, but I’m really proud of my father. He was generous and thoughtful. He went out of his way to hold onto relationships that meant the most to him – even friends from childhood. We don’t tell our family members that when they do something great – how proud we are of their accomplishments.
4. We’re going to be okay. I’m going to be okay. Parents have superhero strength. When they let their guard down, show their human, we tend to fall apart. I would have like to talk to my father more about death. It sounds morbid. It’s a difficult conversation when you’re trying to give someone hope, but it is a conversation worth having. I wanted to let him know that we – my brother, sister and I were going to be okay when he’s no longer with us. We are strong and resilient. He taught us that
You’ll always be in my heart. Each day that passes, I think about my father. Whether it’s a memory, advice, or wisdom – I still look to him. I would have told my dad that no matter what happens in life, he would always be in my heart.
These words help me heal. They help me find inner strength. They help me carry on.
Death takes a toll. It’s not easy mourning the people we love. It’s tough letting go, but when there’s a great big world out there… we have to remember to live.
In the words of my father: “Live every second of every day. Life is beautiful and DON’T LET ANYONE PUT YOU IN A DARK PLACE.
I PEARLIE JENKINS WILL ALWAYS LOVE JOSH JENKINS AND WILL ALWAYS BE HIS LITTLE GIRL AS HE ALWAYS USE TO SAY TO ME!

Beloved Jenkins family my wife, Evangelist Joyce Brown and I and the members of Holy Temple C.O.G.I.C. offer you our deepest condolences and prayers. Superintendent Jenkins was a blessed man of God and it was a very special honor to appoint him as the pastor of Power House Church of God in Christ and to serve with him during my tenure as Rhode Island’s Jurisdictional Bishop. Pastor Jenkins will not be forgotten. He was a great preacher with a caring heart whose challenging sermons will be dearly missed. May God continue to comfort you in this hour of loss, may He keep you, prosper and protect you until we all meet Superintendent Jenkins again in glory.

The death of a loved one is the most devastating thing we deal with. May you find comfort and have faith in our loving heavenly Father, Jehovah God’s promise of an earthly paradise where even death will no longer exist. That promise is found at Revelation 21:4, 5 which reads in part that "death will be no more........ .” God’s promise even includes resurrecting the dead (Acts 24:15) to live again on the earth Psalms 37:11, 29.
Please accept my condolences for your loss

God called a True Servant of his home. I was friends with Josh for over 20 years. Served with him at Powerhouse for five years. Traveled thousands of miles with him. Visited with his precious mom in Mississippi.
Had the privilege of calling him Pastor, brother and friends. He watched my children grow, and they loved and respected him. Good bye my dear friend

Donna and family: I was one of Josh's co-workers. I have had the privilege of knowing him for the last eighteen years. He was a great co-worker and a wonderful man. He was so good-natured. He was always friendly, jovial, helpful and kind-hearted. And for his work as a Pastor and working with the youth in addition to working full-time at the DMV, you should be very proud! Work just doesn't seem the same without him! He will be sorely missed!!! Rest in peace, Josh!!!
