I have very fond memories of Mr. Jackson. I grew up two houses down from him and remember him as being a good and loving father who was always kind to me even when I needed a kick in the pants. Thank you Mr. Jackson for being in my life.

You have lost a huge part of your life but I know you have endless memories and those can never be taken away. Sending hugs. Suzanne Lillich Davis and Family.
