Patricia Ann (Ducey) "Trish" Jenkins

Patricia Ann (Ducey) "Trish" Jenkins age 74 of Maumee, Ohio passed away peacefully on March 9, 2024 with her daughters by her side. She was born in Decatur, IL on March 13, 1949 to Harold and Isabel (Augenstein) Ducey. Trish was a Maumee High School and Bowling Green State University graduate. She has now joined her beloved husband, Timothy Jenkins who she married on August 5, 1968. She has missed his love and companionship since his death on June 6, 2014.

Trish began working at Owens Illinois after earning her bachelor's degrees and concluded her career working in the Bursars office at her alma mater, Bowling Green State University. Her greatest joy was her children, grandchildren, and her favorite (the one and only) great-grandson Brooks. She cared deeply for making wonderful experiences for her family. She enjoyed extravagant games and worked tirelessly on the elaborate scavenger hunt she created each year for Christmas, where the grandkids earned the bragging rights for each year with the annual trophy. The holidays were always a special time for our family and Trish worked hard to put together beautiful decorations, striving for a warm and memorable experience for all.

She was unwavering in her love and support and was consistently thoughtful, which really showed in her gift-giving. She was always there to help whenever any of us needed her. Trish kept in touch with her many lifelong friends from school, tennis, and golf, and enjoyed having lunch with the Spirits of 67. Anyone who knew her knows she had a great sense of style and an outfit for any occasion, including the matching shoes, purse, and jewelry.

She leaves behind her daughters Traci (Craig Stead) Cleghorn and Tiffany (Greg) Herfurt; Grandchildren, Ryan Hickerson, Cody Hickerson, Dalton (Kim Scharff) Cleghorn, Drake (Kaylee) Cleghorn, Devon Cleghorn, Delaney (Christian Calle) Cleghorn, and Danielle Cleghorn; Great-Grandson, Brooks Cleghorn; Brothers Michael (Jill Draheim) Ducey and Jeff Ducey; Sister Pamela Ducey; Brother-in- law, Terry Jenkins; Sister in laws, Sandra Rakovan, Torre Kaylor, Jan Ducey, and Mary Jo Hall, and many more friends and family. The family would like to give a special thank you to close friend Michael (Fitz) Fitzgerald for the help and support that was provided to our mother over the years. In addition to her parents Harold and Isabel Ducey and Husband Timothy Jenkins, she was preceded in death by her Grandson, Drew Cleghorn.

A Celebration of Life will be held on Saturday, May 4th, 2024 from 2 to 5 at the Maumee River Yacht Club located at 2735 Broadway St. Toledo, OH 43609. In Trish's honor wear your Derby attire or just your fanciest shoes. Memorial contributions can be made to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital.
