Earl was born in Lubbock, Texas to Ester V. and Charlene Jackson on February 15th, 1961. Earl attended Roosevelt High School. He was employed by Wilbert Vault Co. for many years, until his retirement.
Our brother enjoyed being around family. He always reminisced about the past. He loved family gatherings and being around friends. He loved his “Me” time, kicking back and enjoying life. He was also a great dancer on the dance floor and never missed a beat.
When he was really feeling good; his favorite saying was “Already,” you knew he was feeling good and the party was about to start. Everyone knew he was the life of the party. He will truly be missed by all who loved him.
Earl is preceded in death by his father Ester V. Jackson, his sister Linda Wallace, and his brothers James Earl Jackson and Bimbo.
Earl leaves behind to cherish his memory, his mother Charlene Jackson, daughter Lakesha Minner, his sons Kendtric Minner and James Earl Adams, his sisters Mary Session, Tonnie (Timothy) Sheppard, Lena (Cedric) Girdy, Loretta Adams, Deshawn Bobo, Rosie, Rosalyn, Yvette Robinson, and Lena Mae Clay, his brothers Sly (LaToya) Jackson, Todd (Isabel) Jackson, Michael (Melissa) Jackson, 9 grandchildren, his special friend Simon and his beautiful wife Angela, and a host of nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends.
