Not sure what to say?

We didn't know Gene, but we've had the pleasure to meet him through his grandson Jordyn and all that he has told us about him. May he rest in peace.

God has picked another flower in His world. You have been an obedient servant and have now accepted your perpetual wings! God bless you and your wife, Carlene, and we will tend to her needs on earth until you see each other again in Heaven.

I will always cherish the times I spent around Gene, he always had a special way of bringing a smile to my face. I'm sure when god invented laughter he was thinking of Gene......

Eugene may God Bless you in Heaven as you did on many peoples lives on earth. You truly opened my eyes and I enjoyed your passion for Life and love of watching your sons play sports at MHS. Dennis Wise

In loving memory of a wonderful person. We will love you and miss you always.

Mr. Jackson was a great man. He was a huge influence in my life. As a young man, I had the pleasure of working on his ranch in Molalla during the summer. To this day....I don't think I ever worked so hard in my entire lfe! That experience taught me so much about myself and about life. Thank you Brother Eugene for taking time to do that for me...and for what you did for countless others. You were a great man and will never be forgotten.

It was a blessing in my life to have had the best brother-in-law ever. He is already missed.
