He is just away, he has gone to be with our father in heaven...though we will all miss him, he has gone to prepare a place and we will all see him again one day. My love and condolences to the family of Mr. Jackson.

I will certainly miss my friend, although it had been years since I last saw him. May he rest in peace. A friend always. Mary Brooks-Stewart

Dear Dad,
Your kindness, love and parental guidance will always be remembered & passed on through our families legacy. You were a rare jewel and I'm so glad that God chose someone as special as you to be my father and my children's grandfather. Although you will be deeply missed, your strong family values and moral character that you exhibited will live on forever. You touched a lot of lives in a positive way. I have no doubt that you are in Heaven watching over us. Enjoy what God has promised you, which is ... "eternal life" until we see each other again. I love you Daddy. Pat
