Jackson Harless Obituary
Jackson proudly served his country in the United States Army for two years and dedicated 25 years to working in the coal mines. He had a deep love for the outdoors, whether hunting, fishing, or just sitting out on the porch. Most of all, he cherished the time he spent with his grandchildren, creating memories full of laughter, stories, and joy.
He is survived by his devoted wife, Ada Swisher Harless; children Jeffery Harless, Jacqueline (Jason) Wefenstette, and Anita Fitch Harless; six grandchildren Bryce Dean, Kelsey (Austin) Boggs, Blake Harless, Fallyne Wefensette, Nicholas Harless, and Ervin "EJ" Harless; one great-grandchild, Bentley Michelle Boggs; and a loving circle of nieces and nephews.
Jackson will be remembered for his quiet strength, his love for the outdoors, his laughter, and stories he loved to share.
