Paul Jenco, 76, USN, Vietnam – Miramar San Diego – 26 March 2021

[Lilygirl54]

The family of Paul Jenco has invited the Patriot Guard Riders to be present to honor their hero for his service to his country.  It will be our privilege to do so.

Paul Jenco, 76, served in the United States Navy from 07/22/1963 to 08/21/1967, serving in Vietnam as a Radioman.  He received the rank of RM3 at the time of his Honorable Discharge.  He received the Good Conduct Medal and the National Defense Medal.

Paul spent most of his civilian life career as a manager for a rental yard. His biggest hobby was spending time with his family. Sadly, one of Paul’s daughters passed away just weeks before he did in April of 2020.  Due to COVID restrictions the family is just now able to lay them both to rest.

Paul is survived by his wife Linda; son, Paul; and daughter, Doriann. Paul also had four grandchildren.

For those interested, and all PGR members are welcome, this will be a flag line only ceremony at Miramar National Cemetery as requested by the family.  Please see the timetable if you would like to participate.
