Marie, Susan, Bob and family,
We will truly miss our dear friend. He was the best neighbor possible. He always had an easy smile, a great story and a bunch of tomotoes to share if they were in season.

For several years I served in the United States Naval Reserve Mob. Unit 5-7 with Captain Jackson. Captain Jackson was truly a person of integrity, class and a man of God. While I was an enlisted man, he treated me and all enlisted personnel with the same dignity as his fellow officers. Captain Jackson was grat American.
