Jinks was predeceased by his wife, Joanne M. One that sums them up beautifully is from a young lady who along with her mother, sisters and brother, while having no place to go, grew up in his household. So many have recently shared their stories with his parents that there are too many to recount here. His home was a safe haven for many young people along with single mothers with children. He also is remembered for his contagious smile and hearty laugh, accompanied by a sincere appreciation of jokes with varying degrees of politeness. He impacted the lives of countless children and young adults most notably by starting and managing a basketball team called “The Piranha’s”. He played several instruments and was a state champion powerlifter. Upon his honorable discharge, he was employed as a drywaller, working for several construction companies, but primarily Zimba Company, of Fairfield, until starting and operating his own business, M.R.

Jordan was predeceased by her maternal grandparents Douglas and Shirley Peaslee, her paternal grandmother, Edith Achorn cousin, Larry Achorn, Jr. The best way to describe Jordan is: No one knew the battle she fought inside her every day, but no matter how dark it got, she kept her smile and shined her light for anyone who needed it, even though she knew she was the one who needed it the most. She really enjoyed golf carting with her aunt, Shirley, sisters and cousins in her younger years and spoke of it often. Jordan loved being around family and friends. She was very creative and did wood burned signs, drawings and artwork. She played softball and soccer in grammar school. Jordan enjoyed four-wheeling, camping, fishing and the outdoors. Jordan worked several odd jobs with her uncle, Roland. She could be feisty and passionate but also very lovable. Jordan was a homemaker and mother raising her two children, daughter Mariah, 10 years old, and son Spencer, 2 years old. While in Augusta she got to know her a/k/a brother, Steven Peaslee, who became a dear friend to her. She married Ben Knox in October 2017, and they lived in Augusta until they moved to her present home in Whitefield in 2019.
