KEITH JENKINS
RIP
Dave Lane brought as the sad news of Keith Jenkins passing.
“Over 40 years on and I have to say farewell to my longest standing
friend. You go through a lot of life together, not just fishing time,
when you have a friend for that long. Living just up the road from
each other for many of those years meant parties, pub bands,
late night drinking and Pink Floyd sessions.And, of course, night
after night rolling bait. Most of these were at Jenks house not
mine, as it was better stocked. I have no idea how Linda actually
put up with me back then.
We had a ball though, and we breezed through the next 40 plus
years without so much as a single argument. Gonna miss the
sight of him thrashing his air guitar at the front of the room in
defiance of the guy who was actually playing the notes, it always
cracked me up. You will be sadly missed my old friend.”
