Special Thanks and Accolades to: Melanie Jackson who although she was a daughter-in-law, she loved mom like no other and became the daughter that mom always wished that she could have had; Aunt Elizabeth Jackson (deceased) and niece Hazel Harris who assisted dad with mom in those areas which needed a lady's touch while dad was still with us and granddaughter Patria Jackson who often checked in on mom to make sure she was ok and from time to time would stop her busy life at the drop of a dime to come hours away to see how she could help assist with mom's care. On behalf of the family, We Thank You!!
