Keith was a dear friend back in our days at University of Hawaii in Honolulu. We shared many interesting adventures and his initial dream of forming a professional theatre group. I'm so sad to know that he is gone, but so happy to know that he was loved by so many, had a wonderful big family around him, and brought his later dream of becoming a doctor to fruition. As he told me many times: "When you wish upon a star..."

Dr. Jenkins was our family doctor. He had always had a smile on his face whenever we went to see him. He would always take the time to explain things to us if we did not understand what he was telling us. Our thoughts and prayers go out to the family in this time of need. My son broke down on my shoulder when I told him about his loss. I truly will miss him very much.

In the Clinic I called him our "Chief". He was our fearless leader, always ready to listen, to provide compassion, and best of all, always ready to tease. His big laugh and silly grin will be greatly missed.
