Mavis Jackson

This is the time of year that Mavis Jackson would be totally evolved in every game of her many favorite football teams generally from her family room television. She would run so hard and fast from the sofa that a nap would be in order after the game especially if her team would win. I truly miss her energy, her optimism and her zest for life. RIP my Sister.

Mrs. Jackson was a force to be reckoned with while in grade school. Reconnecting as an adult and exposing my children to her was a pure gift, and we are all the better for it. Her legacy shall surely live on through her students, and those of us who have been impacted by her presence. Love you always, "Muh!"

Mavis Jackson was my favorite and most influential teacher. I am saddened to hear of her passing, but know that she has left a legacy that will forever live in the hearts and minds of many of the students she invested in. I included her name in my doctoral dissertation as a strong influencer in my life. I will never forget her investment in me.

I am grateful to have had her as a neighbor and friend and I will always remember the warmth and generosity she showed to everyone around her.

Dear Jackson Family, I was deeply saddened to learn of the passing of your mother, Mavis Jackson. She was an incredible person who touched so many lives, not only through her passion for teaching and mentoring students but also through her dedication to the community. Her wisdom, kindness and leadership will be greatly missed by all who had the privilege of knowing her. I am grateful to have had her as a neighbor and friend and I will always remember the warmth and generosity she showed...

A very beautiful person in and out one of my favorite teachers.
