My husband and I met Mr. Jackson through our church family. He was such a delight and we always enjoyed being with him at Yah-Yahs and sharing his famous chocolate layer cake! Our hearts go out to Vicki, Russell and the rest of his family. He is missed! Sam & Janet Tanner

VIcki and Kira - Uncle Arthur will truly be missed by so many. He was such a kind man who loved his family. I think of how he so often made the trip from Charleston to Supply, NC whenever Marc and I would come from New Jersey to visit my parents. He never failed to let us know he loved us. Now he is in Heaven with my Dad and I am sure they are having a grand old time. My prayers are with all of you as I know how hard this can be. Love, Pam

My deepest condolences to your family during this most difficult time. There are no words that can ease the pain of losing someone so beloved. May you find comfort and peace in knowing that your loved one is in God's memory because those who pass on "are precious in his eyes." (Psalms 116:15)

Vicki, Kiri and families,
Uncle Arthur was truly "one of a kind" ! Anyone who knew him realized that! He was so good to me. So supportive and so loving. And, ALWAYS made me laugh! He was a "cutie"! It's sad he's not on this earth anymore! But, think what a better place Heaven is today!
I love you all!

My first thought is how am I going to survive Knowing that my Uncle Arthur
Is no longer here with us. My memories of him goes back to my childhood
He and Aunt Christine have been so special and could make me laugh even in difficult times. He was with me through losing my mother and losing My husband Danny. I also got his approval when I got married again. God has obtained a special Angle, that will be so missed by everyone .r Rest in peace Uncle Arthur. I know you are in a good place,and with all our loves one that has left us. My prayers are with Vickie and Kira and family. I love you all.
Diane
