Because you cared, you came to share, beautiful flowers and words of prayer. Because you cared enough to do
words of comfort on cards that came too Because you cared, we were not alone,
calls and visits reached our homes. Because you cared, we're able to bear the grief and sorrow
For today and tomorrow. Because you cared, we're praying too, For God's richest blessings for each of you.

Mr. Hari Konata Jenkins was born November 26, 1975 in Atlanta, Georgia to Harold Jenkins and the late Marcia Jenkins. He passed away on Tuesday, April23, 2019 in Savannah, Georgia.
Hari received his early education in the Atlanta and Fulton County School System . He attendedWestlake High School in Atlanta Georgia, graduating in 1993. He later attended Beulah Heights University where he received an Associate of Arts degree in Religious Studies on May 7, 2016. He was called by God to preach the gospel and on February 5, 2017, was ordained in the Gospel of Ministry. His ordination was conducted by Prevailing True Love Outreach Ministry Church in Savannah, Georgia.
He accepted Christ early in life and, as a child, was baptized and attended Ben Hill Christian Church in Atlanta. As a young adult, Hari joined Elizabeth Baptist Church in Atlanta, where his love for music, led him to join the Young Voices of Elizabeth Choir. Because of his studies of the Bible, Hari eagerly engaged in conversation with anyone willing to expand their knowledge of the Word of God.
Hari combined his love for music and his love for the Lord by becoming a gospel disc jockey at a number of Atlanta radio stations. He was employed at 104.7 the Fish for ten years, worked at WAOK and completed an internship at V1 03.
Hari had a gregarious nature, an easy smile and a booming laugh . Hari was well known for his sense of humor, as well as his love for sports. He was a true "fanatic" of the Atlanta professional sports teams, especially the Falcons and Braves.
Hari is preceded in death by his mother, Marcia Jenkins, grandparents, Paul Sr. and Ruby Jenkins, Arthur and Evelyn O'Neil and uncles, Paul Jenkins Jr. and Wendell Finch.
On Tuesday, April 23, 2019, Hari entered into eternal rest. He leaves to cherish his memory a loving father and stepmother, Harold Jenkins (Donna) ; sisters, Kemba Wright, (Rochester, NY), Keshia Lackey (Atlanta, GA), and Courtney Seals, (Jonesboro, GA); nephews Christopher Wright (Rochester, NY) and Jackson Marshall, (Atlanta, GA); aunts Patricia Thompson, (Cleveland, OH), Denise Waggner (Cleveland, OH) and Marian Finch, (Atlanta, GA); cousins Shaun Jenkins (Cievelad , OH), Craig Thompson, (Cleveland, OH), Damon Thompson , (Cleveland, OH), DeSean Jenkins, (Cleveland , OH), Essie Finch, (Atlanta, GA), Wendell Finch (Atlanta, GA); Godmother, Gloria J.
