Edith Jackson Obituary

September 20, 1936 - February 10, 2025 Edith Jackson, formerly of Atkinson, NH, passed away peacefully, leaving behind a rich legacy of love and cherished memories. Born on September 20, 1936, Edith was married to her beloved husband, David A. Jackson, for 70 wonderful years before his passing. She was also predeceased by her son, David Jackson. Edith was the daughter of Mr. And Mrs. Anzalone. Edith is survived by her two devoted sons, Robert and James, along with their significant others. She is remembered fondly by her three sisters Kathy and her husband of Saugus, MA, Butterball and her husband of North Andover, and Patty of Reading.
