We are sad to report that Curtis Jenkins has passed. He made significant contributions to Bay East during his 35 years of membership. He was a member of the Affiliate, Government Relations, Membership, Member Benefits, Multiple Listing Service, and Nominating committees. He created many Bay East Home Buyer events at the Alameda Fairgrounds which attracted thousands of new home buyers. He served on the Bay East Board of Directors and the C.A.R. Board of Directors and was the 1998 President of Bay East. In 1997, he was the President of the Bay East Foundation, spearheading the creation of its Members Helping Members fund, which provided critical direct financial assistance to Bay East members in need. Mr. Jenkins was also a pioneer in expanding MLS data sharing throughout the Bay Area, created the name “Bay East Association of REALTORS®. He left a legacy of compassion and innovation which remain cornerstones of Bay East to this day.
