Uncle Julius was a very outgoing man that emphasized physical activity, knowing our history as a people, and enjoying life. I always loved our trips to visit for Thanksgiving, Christmas, or any other stop-in as he would make you feel like you were at home, away from home. Our family trips to Georgia, Ohio, Michigan, etc. were thoroughly enriched with his fun-loving presence. My deepest condolences to Aunt Loretta, Lynn, Dana, Daryl, along with other close family, and friends through these very challenging times.

It takes a village to raise a child. I remember the first time I heard this. Mr. Jackson said those words to me as a young teenager. It was a conversation that I will never forget sitting at his kitchen table. I am thankful that he allowed me to be apart of his village! I have so many great memories because of him & Mrs. Jackson. Heartfelt condolences to the entire family! Rest easy Mr. J! you will truly be missed.

I am so sad to hear of uncle Julius passing. I will always remember my uncle was so boisterous and full of life. At family gatherings, I always remember hearing uncle Julius talking passionately about something he had been reading or new piece of black history he had learned about. And I remember him hearing a song he liked and dancing and even some times pulling is wife, Loretta, up to dance with him. And all the road trips to Georgia for family reunions were always so fun. I can see him cruising in his car like it was yesterday. He seemed to always enjoy life and I will always hold those memories in my heart. I am sending all my love to you all and if you need anything, please feel free to let me know. Love Holly Jackson, Gyasi Cameron and Khalif-Jackson Cameron

We are so very sorry for your loss. May God bless and keep you during this time. Mr Jackson surely showed his family love and affection.
Kyle Jones left a message on May 7, 2020:
Mr. Jackson was a living model of what a father and husband should be and look like. He was dedicated to guiding, providing and protecting his family at all cost. Although we had are difference I loved and respected my father in law and I thank him for being a strong father, grandfather and friend to my family. I pray God empowers and strengthen the Jackson’s family, especially Mrs. Jackson at this time to get through this and that he comforts them, he brings them peace in their hearts and peace in their mind in his name, “Amen.”
