Suffering from an uncurable illness, Mr. Jenkins had been confined to his home for the past 15 years, seldom free from pain. He and his family had lived in this community since 1910. Two sons still make their home here. Mr. Jenkins worked for 8 years in the Review office and later became the rural mail carrier, in which he continued until ill health forced him to retire. He leaves to mourn his passing two sons, Realtus and Herbert Jenkins, and two daughters, Mrs. Harold Norlin and Mrs. Homer Lantz of Sharonville, Ohio, as well as a host of other relatives and friends. In the sorrow of his passing, may his family find solace in the thought that he is at last at rest. OBITUARY Henry Herbert Jenkins, son of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Jenkins, was born on the 30th day of September, 1876, at Storm Lake, Iowa. He passed away from this life at his home in Dayton on the 28th day of June, 1944, at the age of 67 years, 8 months and 29 days. When a young lad he moved with his parents to the town of Arlington, Iowa, and it was there he received his early training and grew to manhood. When a young man, Mr. Jenkins took a stand for the christian life and he united with the Christian Church at Arlington where he worked in the church work for many years. Twas Grace that taught my heart to fear And Grace my fears relieved; How precious did that Grace appear The hour I first believed. Through many trials, toils, and sorrows I have already come; His Grace that brought me safe thus far Will lead me safely home. In the year of 1894 Mr. Jenkins moved to Urbana, Iowa, where he worked at the printing trade and it was while there he met Miss Rosa Van De Venter. So on the 21st day of April 1897 they were united in marriage and to that union were born two sons and two daughters. In 1910 the family moved to Dayton, Iowa, where Mr. Jenkins worked as foreman in the Dayton Review Office. There he worked for 8 years while Mr. Rolfe was editor of the paper. In 1917 Mr. Jenkins became the Rural Mail Carrier for route No. 2 and he continued that route until ill health made him retire in 1936. From that time until his death Mr. Jenkins had suffered much. Many nights he was unable to go to bed to sleep so slept in his chair. My life is but a weaving Between My Lord and me, I cannot choose the colors He worketh steadily, Oft times he weaveth sorrow And I in foolish pride Forget He sees the upper And I the under side. Not till the loom is silent And the shuttle cease to fly Shall God unroll the canvas And explain the reason why The dark threads of gold and silver The pattern he has planned. He leaves to mourn his loss two sons, two daughters, two sisters and two brothers, eight grandchildren and one great grandchild as well as a host of friends. He was preceded in death by his parents, his wife and one brother. His wife, Mrs. Rose Jenkins passed away on the 20th of Feb. 1939. Those who mourn his loss are: two sons, Realtus and Herbert Jenkins, both of Dayton; two daughters, Mrs. Harold Norlin of Ames, Iowa, and Mrs. Homer Lantz of Sharonville, Ohio; two sisters, Mrs. Mabel Runkle of Stanhope, Iowa, and Mrs. Chas. Ross of Marshall, Missouri; two brothers, Oscar Jenkins of Stanhope, Iowa and Dr. Roy Jenkins of Moulton, Iowa. A few more years shall roll A few more seasons come And we shall be with those that sleep Asleep within the tomb. Thee, O My Lord, prepare My soul for that great day O wash me in HIs Precious blood And take my sins away.
