Obituary For Mr. George Junius Jackson

On October 5, 2021, the gates of heaven open and the angel of the Lord welcomed George Junius Jackson. He was a man of God and a man of faith. George Junius Jackson was born November 17, 1941, in High Point, North Carolina to Daniel and Minnie Long Jackson. He was preceded in death by his parents Daniel Jackson and Minnie Jackson, sister, Mary Taylor, and brother, Daniel Gail Jackson.

George worked at North State Telephone in High Point, North Carolina for 48 years until his retirement in 2010. Upon his retirement he worked as a Supply Coordinator.

He met and married Lucille Hairston in 1964 and one child was born to this union. George was an active and faithful member of Foster Grove Baptist Church. As a member of Foster Grove, he served on the Trustee Board and Deacon Board, Church Janitor, Usher Board, and Finance Committee and always made sure the church yard was mowed, which was his side “hustle.” He was a husband, father, brother, grandfather, brother-in-law, and uncle who was active in the church.

Those who remain to meet George Junius Jackson in the Rapture are his wife, Lucille Jackson; son George (Kip) Jackson, II (Lisa); grandson, Cameron Jamaal Jackson whom he called “Bookie”; 9 god-daughters; 2 god-sons; sisters-in law, Elma Hairston and Maggie Davis; brother-in-law, George Hairston of High Point; and a host of nieces, nephews, relatives, and friends. George was the kind of man, that if you needed a favor, just ask, and it was done.

The family will receive friends at the chapel from 12:00 p.m. until 12:30 p.m. Public viewing will be held on Sunday, October 10, 2021 from 4:00 p.m. until 7:00 p.m. at Phillips Funeral Service Chapel.

The life of George Junius Jackson was a life well-lived. He was kind, gentle and gracious. A brother-in-law to me whom I could always count on. He will be missed; but I know he rests in the arms of our father.

George was my friend at North State from the day I met him. We talked and laughed often of family, hobbies, etc. Everyone at North St. loved and respected George. My husband also worked with George in tobacco. He was a good man & a good worker. May God be with your family during this sad time. Sue Duncan
