Pastor Clarence Jackson was by far one of the most influential and powerful preachers of the Gospel that has Graced this earth. His presence will truly be missed and I pray that his legacy will continue to impact the lives of generations to come. My sincere condolences to the family and Church family.

Offering my heart felt sympathy to the family of Supt. Clarence Jackson. I knew him from Hubbard High School where we spent some enjoyable times. Even then he was a gentleman of great stature. Always cordial, friendly and willing to assist. Truly a man of God. May God bless, uplift and comfort you.
