Memories and Condolences
for Floyd Jackson

Not sure what to say?





My heart is hurting for your family at the loss of such a dear man. But I rejoice at the same time, knowing he is in heaven with my beloved husband David, who loved like a father.

When Pastor Jackson came to visit ACE hardware he would come in the door calling "David-Mary, come forth children and lets pray together."
We loved him so much, and I'll miss him greatly.
My thoughts and prayers are with you, God Bless and keep you.
