TTENAHA, Texas - Tributes have poured in from across the nation this week after former East Texas football coach Jeremy Jenkins and his wife, Brandy, were killed in a car crash.

Jenkins coached at Tenaha, Mount Enterprise and Harmony during his time in East Texas.

Current Tenaha athletic director Terry Ward is organizing an effort to raise money for the couple's sons."Obviously donating money will never replace the loss that those boys have seen, but we just want to show them that their parents were important to us," Ward said.
