Happy Anniversary my Dear Mother, I know the Angel's in Heaven are rejoicing. Your assignment was so clear while you were here. The difference you made in my life was tremendous. You are missed beyond words. Your smile, your laugh, your "brick house" birthday greetings., your well dressed; Diva presence is certainly missed. I thank the Lord for the time we had. You showed us all how to live and with dignity you showed us how to die. Mom you were always the class act. Like the Apostle Paul you fought the good fight,finished the course, and kept the faith ready now to receive the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will award on that day. Your son in Law Renick whom affectionately nick-named you "DIVA"., Granddaughters Dr. Kendra and Ty Mayes look forward to seeing you in that Great getting up morning.
Until Then~

Remembering Pat as Sarahbeth spoke at the St. Baldriick's Foundation event on March 15th. She was there in spirit as many men and women shaved their heads to raise money for childhood cancer research! You will always be in our heart, Miss Pat! Thinking of Jerry and her family!

I met Pat as she smiled at me at "Relay for Life". My granddaughter, Sarahbeth was working with her. Pat recruited her while Sarahbeth was receiving chemo. Pat was so easy to love and her vitality was contagious. She was loving, charismatic, energetic, organized and I could go on. I loved Pat and she was a ver good friend that always offered encouragement. She has seen my daughter , and I am sure she has embraced her with her love. Heaven is in for a wonderful experience. My thoughts and prayers are with her wonderful family.

I have known Pat for just over three years. We met because of Relay for Life while my granddaughter was in chemo at the age of 15. She gave love, humor, charisma, determination, and many other qualities that I could list. She influenced my live in a very positive way. My love and condolences go to the family that she loved dearly. She is definitely embracing my daughter as she checks off the things that need to be done. God is holding her closely in his arms.

I met Pat in January 2012 when she came to Pierremont Hospital to visit a mutual friend. She was so gracious and energetic. We connected right away and shared Holiday Recipes. I'm thankful to have met this most wonderful person who worked so hard to better the lives of so many. My sincere condolences to Jerry and all her family

To the family and extended family of Pat Jackson....although I've known Ms. Pat for a short time, I feel like I've known her all my life. Her smile would light up a room! I loved her honesty and directness; I loved our conversations. I loved her passion and love she had for her husband, Jerry, and for their children and extended family. I pray God will wrap His loving arms around all of you - her family - and ease your pain. Ms. Pat is a wonderful lady, and I'll miss her.

I am so sorry to hear of Ms. Pats' passing! What a wonderful woman. I was her go to person when she needed rooms for her cancer patients for ACS. So often she'd come to have lunch with me and we'd pig out on our chitterlings at Boomtown! What a joy it was to talk to her about everything. I'm going to really miss my friend.

Miss Pat touched people everywhere she went. We work downstairs in office building and over the years her "visits" and zest has meant a lot to all of us. She and my wife share same birthday, she once told me that day was reserved for "special" ladies. She was right and she was one. Thanks Ms Pat for being a giver.
