I believe this info is correct (taken from a website of a funeral home in the Chattanooga area):
David Jenkins, 64, passed away Tuesday, October 26, 2021 at Erlanger Hospital in Chattanooga. Born in Atlanta, but moved to Chattanooga early in his life, he graduated from UTC with a degree in journalism and worked for the Chattanooga Free Press for over 20 years.
He was preceded in death by his mother, Eleanor Saye Jenkins.
David is survived by his father, Ray Jenkins, of Chattanooga; brother, Jay Jenkins, of Dublin, Ga.; sister, Amy Jennings, of Chattanooga; and nephews, Justin Jennings, of Florida, Jon Jennings and Ethan Jennings, both of Chattanooga.
Private family services will be held.
