A graduate of Indian Lake High School and THE Ohio State University, he taught industrial arts and coached football and basketball at Riverside High School, leaving a lasting impact on his students. He was a skilled builder and had a sharp sense of humor, always ready with a joke and a poem. Greg found happiness in simple pleasures, often enjoying live music with a cold beer alongside his wife.

In lieu of flowers, gifts may be made in honor of Greg Jenkins to the University of Cincinnati Cancer Center c/o The UC Foundation, PO Box 19970, Cincinnati, OH 45219 or online at foundation.uc.edu/cancer.

Rest in peace, Greg. Your love and laughter will forever echo in our hearts.
