Friends and family,

I am writing this with a broken heart.  As many of you have already herd, Jay Schenkel passed on January 5th 2017 in his hometown, Mesquite, Texas at the age of 25. Jay was a husband and and father, a veteran of the United States Marine Corps, and he was a friend to all. Jay is survived by his wife, Analicia Marie Schenkel; his children, daughter, Evelyn Jade Schenkel, and beloved dog, King Lucifer Schenkel; his parents Jay and Lesa Schenkel & William and Gregoria Bacus; grandparents, Mary Sue Thompson & Bill and Sally Bacus; his siblings, Heather and Justin McClung & Ellysa Bacus; niece and nephew, McKenzie Grace and Nathan McClung; as well as many aunts, uncles, cousins, and family. I am creating this page in hopes to cover or at least help with funeral and memorial costs. Any donation you can afford to give will be greatly appreciated. Please remember to keep the family in your prayers. Jay is and will always be greatly missed.


Jay Schenkel was a legend. And as Babe Ruth once said, "Heros get remembered, but legends never die."
