    Mike was a good friend and co-worker of my late husband, James Ely at Roberts Brass and his son Raymond at Carpenters. James always spoke highly of him and they were reconnected at MM for a short time. Praying for your family now and in the days ahead.

    Mike and his family were very good neighbors while we all lived at Bono. Swimming in the creek and fishing in the river are all good memories of summers long gone. Riding our bikes, playing baseball in the road made Bono a good place to live and enjoy family and friends. A lot of good times were spend with Mike and his family. Mike will be missed by all of the Jackson family.

    Those of us that worked at Carpenter Body Works share a special bond and Mike was one of us. He was a very nice man and always smiling when I would see him out and about. I know he will be missed and I am so sorry for your loss.
