Sister Linda, Bro. Gilbert and family we are praying for you. We know assurredly that God will send His guardian angels to go with you every step of the way. As a father who pitieth his children and a groom to his bride, He will never leave nor forsake us through health, sickness, and yes even through the valley of the shadow of death. Brother Jay will truly be missed.

To: Missionary Linda & family.....

Praise the Lord!

Our hearts are heavy for we miss our Bro. J so much and we loved him dearly. Bro J was such a genuine and caring person you could never forget and who ALWAYS had encouraging words to share about God's word.

He and my husband were very good buddies and would talk all the time.

Since I'm from Amelia County and have family in Powhatan & Cumberland Counties (who Bro. J grew up w/ and knew well), he would always say "we were cousins too" and I would always tell him "no we were not". He was full of so much laughter and his memories will be w/ us always.

We will also remember Bro. J's 2 most sayings which were: "you understand me?" and "guess what!"

Family, continue to look up and hold to God's hands and God will take you through now AND in days to come.

Rest in peace Bro. J, our dear brother!

Much Love,
Theodore, Wylander & Tanika Jackson

To My Beloved Papa J,
Missing you more than I can tell you! Thank you for being the perfect example of a Father-In-Love and a Man of God. Because of your love, I walk taller and straighter in this life and look forward to the glorious next one. See you in "Gooseland"!
Loving you always, "Trouble"

I will miss the encouraging words of God's Goodness.God bless the family.God loves you and so do I.

I really, really miss you Mr. Atkins.

Hey brother you will be sorely missed.
We grew up together and I'm the better for it.
We did not have a lot but we made it, and now you have really made it!
Love always your brother!
