Omega Jackson Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
"Boots" as he was affectionately known is survived by his beloved daughter and son-in-law, Karen Jackson Ellis and Rico Ellis; his grandchildren, Tyler Jackson Ellis, Mia Ellis, and Megan Ellis; and his two sisters, Carol Fuller, and Kathryn Hicks.
Boots served his country for twenty years in the U.S. Air Force, visiting 28 different countries. Upon retiring from the military, he owned and operated Outlaw Express Trucking. He was a meticulous recordkeeper and an avid hunter and gun collector. Boots was a sharpshooter, a great gardener known for his tomatoes, and loved his Doberman Pinscher dogs. He was the sweetest man; he loved his daughter and grandchildren fiercely and enjoyed spending time with them and attending all of their events.
A service of military honours is planned for a later date.
