Obituary for Gwendolyn Marie Manning
Our beloved sister, Gwendolyn Marie Manning, passed away on March 19, 2019, in Las Vegas, Nevada, from pneumonia. For over a decade, she struggled with health issues arising from a 2008 aortic aneurysm, which severely affected her lungs, and unfortunately after contracting pneumonia in early March 2019 she departed from this world.
Gwendolyn Marie Manning was born Gwendolyn Marie Jenkins on July 17, 1949, in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. Called "Gwen" by her immediate family members, she was the first child born to the union of Everett and Lillie Jenkins. As the eldest child of a U.S. serviceman, Gwen moved a number of times, from her birthplace in Oklahoma City, to Biloxi, Mississippi; Ardmore, Oklahoma; Victorville, California; El Paso, Texas; Glasgow, Montana; and then back to Victorville, California. In Victorville, Gwen attended Victor Valley Senior High School and graduated from Victor Valley Senior High School in 1967.
After graduating from high school, Gwen ventured to Los Angeles where she began her career as an administrative support staff person. Not long after arriving in Los Angeles, Gwen met and married Charles Manning in 1968. They remained married for 24 years and were blessed with three wonderful daughters: Nicole in 1969; Darla in 1974; and Charlene in 1981.
Gwen was a loving and attentive mother. She was actively involved in the lives of her daughters and took great pride in their accomplishments. As her daughter’s lives took them to the Las Vegas area, Gwen soon followed. It was in Las Vegas that she began her two final, great missions. One was to serve as a loving grandmother to her granddaughter, Kylie, and the other was to serve as the "Church Mother" for the congregation of Kingdom Life Ministry in Las Vegas.
Gwen passed away on March 19, 2019 surrounded by her family. She was preceded in death by her parents Everett Jenkins, Sr. and Lillie (nee Ingram) Jenkins. Gwen leaves to mourn her passing her three daughters, Nicole Manning Fields (Kenny) of Winnetka, California; Darla Manning Finn (Darryl) of Las Vegas, Nevada; and Charlene Manning (Keith) of Las Vegas, Nevada. She also leaves behind Charlene's daughter, Kylie. Finally, Gwen also leaves behind her siblings Everett "Skip" Jenkins, Jr. of Fairfield, California; Evelyn Manning of Los Angeles, California: Garry Jenkins of Livermore, California; and Kevin Jenkins of Victorville, California, along with many nieces and nephews.
A Celebration of Life Service is scheduled for 11:00 am on April 20, 2019, at the Kingdom Life Ministry Church, located at 3445 W. Craig Road, Las Vegas, Nevada 89032.
