Patricia Ann Jenkins, affectionally known as “PP”, “Pat” and “Trish” was born on October 15, 1973, in Winston Salem, North Carolina. She attended West Forsyth High School. Pat was known for taking care of everyone she encountered. She was well known to those she took in as her own as Aunt Pat or Ma Pat. Her love and generosity showed up throughout her career as an Assistant Manager at Arby’s, and anywhere else she worked. She loved showering her employees with gifts, just because that’s who she was; A selfless, loving, and giving person. If she had it, you had it!
Pat loved spending time with her family, and most of all, spoiling her beautiful grandchildren. She also developed a love for makeup and would give herself a makeover anytime she wanted to feel even more beautiful than she already was. She also loved to do TikTok’s, especially with her grandchildren. They were her pride and joy. She always had “McDonalds Money” for them.
Pat was a selfless person who wanted to see everyone do well. She also didn’t play when it came to her peace, her kids, or grandkids. She will tell you how she felt, withholding NOTHING and still showing you love, all within the same breath. Pat was a genuine soul who kept it real! She will truly be missed and is loved by all and will forever be in our hearts.
