MRS. LOUISE (PICKETT) JENKINS

(For we walk by faith, not by sight:)we are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord.)  2 Corinthians 5:7-8

Louise Pickett Jenkins, affectionately known to her family and close friends as Pick, was born on November 05, 1949, in Alma, Georgia to the late Neal Pickett, Sr. and Pearlie Mae Pickett.  She departed this life on September 30, 2024, at Altamaha Health Center in Jesup, Georgia.  She was educated in the Bacon County School System.

Louise was a member of First African Baptist Church at an early age. She was married to the late Clize Jenkins.  Louise had no kids but always catered to her nieces, nephews, and children of the community.  She lived a life centered around love, laughter, giving, and RECEIVING.   Those who knew her would expect her to ask for something, but she didn’t only take, she was a generous giver and remembered everyone’s birthday.   

Louise had two sisters preceding her departure, Annette (James) Reynolds, of Lake Wales, Florida and Claudia (Willie aka Chipp) Rainey of Hazlehurst, Georgia; One brother, Neal Pickett of Milledgeville, Georgia; Grandmother, Corine Stephens of Alma, Georgia
