Ralph G. Jenkins

Ralph Gerald Jenkins was born on September 7, 1962 to Dudley and Evelyn Jenkins. He had two sisters, Tawna and Rhonda and three brothers, Les, DJ and Kolen. He was born and raised in Idaho. In Twin Falls, he became the proud father of three children, Arejay, Amber and Kail. Ralph married Mika (the love of his life) on August 31, 2002. They had two children together, Casity and Carter. Ralph was always proud and supportive of his family. In addition to his children, Ralph is also the proud Grandpa of Jaycie, Cade, Jillian, Syris, Lyric and Sage.
Ralph was always independent and worked hard his whole life. He liked to hunt, fish, play darts and horseshoes, and generally spend time outdoors or with friends. Ralph has an extended group of friends that he cared deeply for. He was a prankster and loved to surprise people. It was well known that you never start a water fight with him unless you plan to lose.
Beneath his gruff exterior, Ralph was a teddy bear and could always be counted on to help someone out. He loved to see kids smile. He worked in landscape and sprinkler design and installation. He always took the time to get to know his customers and never forgot them. He would often share stories of the people he encountered.
This November, Ralph became seriously ill. He tried very hard to stay with us, but passed away on November 25th. Ralph was loved by many and will be missed more than we can say.
A Celebration of his Life was held Friday, November 29th at Wilks Funeral Home, 211 W. Chubbuck Road. Thank you for those that were able to attend regardless of the holiday weekend and the difficulty the short notice created.
