ORA LEE SIMS JACKSON

Mrs. Jackson was a wonderful coach, mentor, and teacher. I had the honor of being under her tutelage at North Marion High School. While I never made the basketball team, the resilience and toughness I learn from her has been a life lesson that I carry with me today. She was a blessing to us as ahe pushed us out of our comfort zone and encouraged us to set high standards for every endeavor. Rest in love and power, Ora Lee!

Ms.Jackson was a inspirational influence in my life since 6th grade.She was tough as nails on us as cheerleaders.You better smile while cheering or out came the vaseline on your teeth..lolGo high on your mountain.TILL WE MEET AGAIN MY FRIEND

Ora Lee was. A very special person. Her students always spoke well of her. Prayers for all.

I will miss you my teacher and friend. You stayed in my life. I thank God for the Chance to see you before you transitioned. You made my day during the loss of my Aunt. The class of 1980 will miss you down here. But if we live right and love right we will see you again. Love LaTonyia McDavid

My amazing track Coach, Ms. Ora Lee Jackson. She had a major impact on my life. I remember the first day of track practice in 1983 she was our new coach. I asked her if I could run hurdles and she said if that's what you want to do, do it. That was all the encouragement I needed to pursue my dream. She allow me to do what I enjoyed and to say I was quite good at it. She push me and the team to new heights and we were the team to beat. Her training took me all the way to the High School...

Ora Lee Jackson was an AMAZING woman of honor! She wore many hats...Mother, Godmother, grandmother, sister, friend, aunt, educator, youth mentor, community leader...but the most important hat that she wore proudly was Woman of God! I am SO grateful to have been blessed to share time and space with her during her life journey. I am also honored that she proudly wore the hat of my daughter's Godmother. Prayers and condolences I send to all her family and loved ones. Ora Lee Jackson had...
