**MELBOURNE, Ky.** — Faith Louise Jenkins, a beloved mother, grandmother, sister, and friend whose vibrant spirit was a beacon of light to all who knew her, passed away on February 20, 2026. She was 47.
Born in St. Charles, Illinois, to Roger Kirby and Patricia Smith, Faith was a devoted member of St. Luke Lutheran Church in Cold Spring and dedicated her professional life to caring for others as a Pharmacy Technician.
Faith’s greatest joy was her family. She is survived by her loving husband, Dan Jenkins; her children, Madison Kirby (Jacob Hornsby), Stella Jenkins, Trent Jenkins, Liam Jenkins, Zinnia Jenkins, and Zoey Jenkins; her grandchildren, Evelyn and Olivia Hornsby; her sisters, Tera (Graham) Cox, Angela (Ryan) Arlinghaus, and Jacki Miller (James Sparks); her grandmother, Jacqueline Rehbein; and her uncle, August “Butch” Rehbein.

Described as a “ray of sunshine,” Faith’s warm smile and generous heart left a lasting impression on everyone she met. To honor her bright and joyful personality, the family requests that attendees at her services wear cheerful colors—yellows, oranges, and reds—the hues of sunshine.
