Estela Jenkins, 80, of El Dorado Springs, MO passed away peacefully with her family by her side on Saturday, January 13, 2024. She was born March 9, 1943, to Baltazar and Concepcion Pacleb in Honolulu, Hawaii.

She loved her island Hawaii and visited family and friends there often, most recently staying a full month prior to her death. She always shared goodies she brought back with family and friends and would help out any way she could. She always had a smile on her face!

She is preceded in death by her father, Baltazar and her sister, Linda Pagba both of Hawaii.

Estela is survived by her husband of 63 years, James Jenkins; her four children, Wade Jenkins (Gloria), Jelena Oller (Jeremy) of Idaho, Janie Hammond (Dave) of Idaho, and Aaron Jenkins (Rhoda) of Eldridge, MO; her mother, Connie (102 years old) of Honolulu; two sisters both of Hawaii, Virgie Tique and Priscilla Salas; she leaves behind 8 grandchildren and many nieces and nephews.

As one of Jehovah's Witnesses, she shared her hope for the future with all. One of the key scriptures of her faith was the future resurrection hope promised at John 5: 28, 29 where all in the memorial tomb will hear his voice and come out. We look forward to seeing her again.

A memorial service will be held at the Kingdom Hall of Jehovah's Witnesses in El Dorado Springs, MO on Saturday 1/27/24 at 6:30 pm.

Arrangements have been entrusted to Midwest Cremation and Funeral Services of Springfield, MO.
