To the Jackson Family, It's been a couple of weeks now and I am so sorry I'm just now getting around to writing this. Evelyn even though I left you my condolences on Facebook....this is different because this condolences is extended to the whole family. You all are bless to have had a very special mother. One that not only you loved but all who knew her. Although I hadn't seen her in a long while, I remember her being more of a neighborhood mother. She was very special and I hope that God bestows you all with memories of her that comforts the heart.
