DON JENKINS:  SINGING DON! 

 

Don loves to sing! Anytime, anywhere.  There is a guitar with him at all times. 

Don sang in choirs all through high school and college.  He comes from a singing family with singing being a part of family gatherings.   

 

When I met Don, he would often say that he was looking forward to retirement so he could do even more singing.  

And now he spends his time singing and performing, playing with his three grandchildren, and traveling. 

 

You can hear Don perform at the Mill Creek Town Center Art Walks and Wine Walks,  Everett United Church of Christ Services, and regular concerts at Timber Ridge Community in Issaquah, WA.
